Product Description

Official US Navy HSM-49 Scorpions Squadron Patches — Red Stinger Inbound

The Scorpion strikes from the smallest deck in the fleet.

HSM-49 "Scorpions" is a U.S. Navy Helicopter Maritime Strike Squadron operating the MH-60R Seahawk out of NAS North Island in San Diego, California. With the radio callsign "Red Stinger" and tailcode TX, the Scorpions provide combat-ready pilots, aircrewmen, and aircraft to Pacific Fleet warships in an expeditionary detachment model — deploying aboard Arleigh Burke-class destroyers and Ticonderoga-class cruisers for anti-submarine warfare, anti-surface warfare, search and rescue, and ISR missions. Originally established as HSL-49 in 1990 during the Navy's transition from the SH-2 Seasprite to the SH-60B Seahawk, the Scorpions have accumulated over 72,000 flight hours and earned the Battle Effectiveness Award for their outstanding operational readiness. This officially licensed squadron patch features the Scorpions' iconic insignia — a patch that represents the sharp end of the Navy's maritime strike capability.

Perfect For: HSM-49 Scorpions pilots, aircrew, and maintainers, MH-60R Seahawk community, NAS North Island squadrons, small-deck detachment sailors, Pacific Fleet helicopter crews, and anyone who has operated from the back of a tin can.

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.
