Official US Navy Gray Flag Exercise Shoulder Patches — Fly. Test. Fight. Win.
Before it goes to the fleet, it goes through Gray Flag.
Gray Flag is the U.S. Navy's premier large-force test event, hosted by Naval Test Wing Pacific (NTWP) and Air Test and Evaluation Squadron Nine (VX-9) at Naval Base Ventura County, Point Mugu, California. The exercise combines developmental testing, operational testing, and tactics development to evaluate advanced capabilities in a joint, multi-domain environment across a 36,000-square-mile instrumented sea range off the California coast. Gray Flag brings together Navy, Marine Corps, Army, and Air Force units — along with allied partners — to fly hundreds of sorties across dozens of aircraft types, testing next-generation weapons, sensors, and integrated warfighting systems in realistic combat scenarios. This patch represents the test community's sharpest edge — where tomorrow's capabilities are proven before they ever reach the fleet.
Perfect For: Naval Test Wing Pacific personnel, VX-9 Vampires, test pilots and flight test engineers, Point Mugu aviators, NAWCWD scientists and engineers, Gray Flag participants, and anyone who has flown test sorties over the Pacific Range.
Gray Flag — where the future fights first.
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.
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.
Yes—custom solutions are available (patches, name tags, lanyards, apparel). Use the custom request page and include artwork, size, backing preference, and quantity.
