Official Fleet Marine Force FMF Pacific Close Kill Chains Patch — Linking Sensors to Shooters
FMF Pacific closes kill chains — connecting Marine sensors to shooters faster than the enemy can react.
This embroidered patch represents the Fleet Marine Force Pacific (FMFPAC) kill chain concept, emphasizing the Marine Corps' focus on closing kill chains — the process of detecting, tracking, targeting, engaging, and assessing enemy targets. In modern warfare, the speed at which a force can close its kill chain determines who wins. FMFPAC's focus on rapid kill chain closure means connecting Marine sensors (aircraft, UAS, ground observers) to Marine shooters (artillery, aviation, naval surface fires) in a seamless, rapid targeting cycle.
Perfect For: FMF Pacific Marines, Marine Corps targeting and fires professionals, kill chain doctrine enthusiasts, and USMC operational concept patch collectors.
Close kill chains — sensors to shooters, faster than the enemy.
