F/A-18 Super Hornet Comin' in Hot Shoulder Patch — F/A-18E/F Super Hornet Embroidered Patch
Comin' in hot — the Super Hornet delivers the thunder.
The F/A-18E/F Super Hornet is the backbone of United States Navy carrier aviation, serving as the fleet's primary strike fighter aboard every nuclear-powered aircraft carrier. This "Comin' in Hot" shoulder patch celebrates the raw power and lethality of the Super Hornet platform with the aggressive confidence that defines the naval strike fighter community. "Comin' in hot" is aviator slang for an approach with weapons ready to fire — a fitting description for an aircraft designed to dominate in both air-to-air combat and precision strike missions.
The F/A-18E (single-seat) and F/A-18F (two-seat) Super Hornet variants represent a quantum leap over the legacy Hornet, with increased range, greater payload capacity, improved survivability, and the ability to serve as an aerial refueling tanker. Super Hornet squadrons have seen extensive combat in the skies over Iraq, Syria, Afghanistan, and Libya, delivering precision-guided munitions with devastating accuracy while also providing fleet air defense. The Super Hornet community is the largest and most versatile in Naval Aviation, and this patch captures the swagger and lethality that its pilots bring to every mission.
Perfect For: F/A-18E/F Super Hornet pilots and WSOs, Navy strike fighter squadron members, carrier aviation enthusiasts, naval aviation morale patch fans, and anyone who appreciates the aircraft that carries the Navy's strike power.
Comin' in hot — the Super Hornet doesn't miss.
