Officially Licensed USMC VMFA-542 Tigers Patch
The Tigers — prowling through decades of Marine fighter history.
Marine Fighter Attack Squadron 542 (VMFA-542), the Tigers, carries a distinguished lineage in Marine Corps fighter aviation. The Tigers have operated some of the most iconic fighter aircraft in Marine history, including the F-4 Phantom II and F/A-18 Hornet, conducting air superiority, close air support, and interdiction missions across multiple deployments and combat operations. The tiger motif — one of the most popular mascots in military aviation worldwide — reflects the squadron's predatory instincts and aggressive tactical mindset. This officially licensed patch preserves the VMFA-542 Tigers identity with the quality and detail that the squadron's heritage deserves.
Perfect For:
VMFA-542 Tigers current and former members, Marine fighter attack community members, F-4 Phantom and F/A-18 Hornet alumni, and Marine squadron patch collectors.
Tigers — always on the prowl.
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.
