Officially Licensed USMC HMH-464 Condors CH-53 EGA Shoulder Patch — Marine Heavy Helicopter Squadron 464 Embroidered Patch
The Condors and the Super Stallion under the Eagle, Globe, and Anchor—HMH-464's CH-53E identity patch, combining the squadron's heritage with the Marine Corps' most iconic emblem.
Marine Heavy Helicopter Squadron 464 (HMH-464), the "Condors," is a heavy-lift helicopter squadron assigned to Marine Aircraft Group 29, 2nd Marine Aircraft Wing, based at Marine Corps Air Station New River, North Carolina, carrying the tail code "EN." The Condors operate the Sikorsky CH-53E Super Stallion—the largest and most powerful helicopter in the Western world—capable of lifting 36,000 pounds of external cargo or transporting 55 combat-equipped Marines. This shoulder patch integrates the CH-53E Super Stallion with the Eagle, Globe, and Anchor (EGA), marking the aircraft as a distinctly Marine Corps platform.
The CH-53E Super Stallion is powered by three General Electric T64-GE-416A turboshaft engines producing a combined 13,140 shaft horsepower, driving a seven-bladed main rotor that spans 79 feet. The aircraft's lift capability is unmatched in the American military—it can carry a Light Armored Vehicle, a 155mm howitzer with ammunition, or a full pallet of supplies in a single external lift, and its internal cabin can be configured for troop transport, casualty evacuation, or cargo. The "Shitter" nickname affectionately given to the CH-53 by its crews refers to the aircraft's notoriously difficult maintenance requirements and its tendency to leak hydraulic fluid.
HMH-464 has deployed in support of every major Marine Corps operation in recent decades, providing the heavy-lift capability that enables the MAGTF to move its heaviest equipment in the most austere environments. The Condors have operated from amphibious assault ships, forward operating bases, and desert landing zones, proving time and again that the Super Stallion is the indispensable workhorse of Marine expeditionary logistics.
Perfect For: HMH-464 Condors members and veterans, CH-53E Super Stallion community members, MAG-29 and 2nd MAW personnel, MCAS New River Marines, and Marine heavy helicopter aviation enthusiasts.
The Condors of HMH-464—flying the biggest bird under the Eagle, Globe, and Anchor, moving mountains of men and materiel wherever the Marine Corps fights.
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.
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.
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.
