Product Description

Officially Licensed US Navy VFA-115 Eagles Squadron Patch 5 Stars — Strike Fighter Squadron 115 F/A-18E Super Hornet NAS Lemoore Embroidered Patch

First into combat with the Super Hornet — the Eagles fly five-star, fly first.

Strike Fighter Squadron 115 (VFA-115), the "Eagles," is a US Navy strike fighter squadron currently based at Naval Air Station Lemoore, California, flying the F/A-18E Super Hornet. Originally commissioned as Attack Squadron 115 (VA-115) on October 25, 1946 at NAS Norfolk, Virginia, the squadron flew the SB2C-5 Helldiver before transitioning through the AD-4 Skyraider in Korea, the A-1H Skyraider over Vietnam, the A-6A Intruder, and ultimately the A-6E Intruder until being redesignated VFA-115 on October 1, 1996 and transitioning to the F/A-18C Hornet. The Eagles made naval aviation history in November 2001 when they completed transition to the F/A-18E Super Hornet — becoming the first operational fleet F/A-18E squadron — and in July 2002 deployed aboard USS Abraham Lincoln (CVN-72) with Carrier Air Wing FOURTEEN, where on November 6, 2002 a VFA-115 Super Hornet dropped the type's first combat ordnance during Operation Southern Watch over Iraq. From 2009 through 2024 the Eagles served as a forward-deployed naval forces (FDNF) squadron with Carrier Air Wing FIVE (CVW-5) aboard USS George Washington (CVN-73) and USS Ronald Reagan (CVN-76), homeported at NAF Atsugi and later MCAS Iwakuni, Japan — making the Eagles the longest continuously forward-deployed Super Hornet squadron in the Navy. The squadron's distinctive five-star, white-on-blue tail-flash design first flew over the Sea of Japan and now over the Western Pacific.

Perfect For: VFA-115 Eagles active-duty and veteran personnel, F/A-18E Super Hornet pilots and maintainers, NAS Lemoore residents and NAF Atsugi/MCAS Iwakuni alumni, Carrier Air Wing 5 and CVW-14 personnel, USS Abraham Lincoln and USS Ronald Reagan veterans, A-6 Intruder and SB2C Helldiver heritage enthusiasts, and Western Pacific FDNF deployers.

Eagles — first to fly the Rhino into combat.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I choose the right backing?

If you want to swap patches on/off gear, choose hook & loop (velcro). If you’re attaching permanently to uniforms or fabric, choose sew-on. If you want quick application on compatible fabric, choose iron-on / heat seal (when offered). Backing options are shown on the page and update based on the variant you select.

What size is this item?

Size is shown on the product page and updates with the variant you select (example: 3"). If you’re mounting on a hat or small panel, choose smaller sizes; for plate carriers and display boards, larger sizes fit better.

Are these Officially Licensed?

If the product is officially licensed, it will say “Officially Licensed” in the title and/or in the product details. If it doesn’t, it’s still a legitimate product—just not part of a licensed program.

Do you offer bulk or reruns for units/squadrons?

Yes. If you see a note like “bulk reruns available,” that means we can support group orders or reruns. If you don’t see it, contact us with the unit/squadron and quantity and we’ll confirm options.

Can you make a custom patch / name tag / lanyard / apparel?

Yes—custom solutions are available (patches, name tags, lanyards, apparel). Use the custom request page and include artwork, size, backing preference, and quantity.
