Officially Licensed US Navy HC-4 Black Stallions Patch — Heavy Lift Embroidered
The Black Stallions moved the heaviest cargo the Navy needed hauled — and this patch carries that weight in thread.
Helicopter Combat Support Squadron 4 (HC-4), the Black Stallions, operated the H-3 Sea King and CH-53E Sea Stallion, providing heavy-lift and combat support to the fleet. This embroidered patch captures the Black Stallions' iconic insignia. HC-4 deployed throughout the Mediterranean and Atlantic, delivering oversized cargo, conducting mine countermeasures support, and providing vertical onboard delivery that complemented lighter utility helicopter squadrons. The Black Stallions filled a critical gap in fleet operations, bringing heavy-lift helicopter capability to areas where only rotary-wing aircraft could reach.
Perfect For: HC-4 Black Stallions veterans, CH-53 and H-3 Sea King crews, fleet support helicopter aviators, heavy-lift community members, and Navy embroidered patch collectors.
Black Stallions — heavy lift, embroidered legacy.
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.
