Officially Licensed US Navy HC-4 Invaders Patch — Heavy Lift Across the Mediterranean
The Invaders of HC-4 brought heavy-lift helicopter capability to the Mediterranean and beyond.
Helicopter Combat Support Squadron 4 (HC-4), the Invaders, was a U.S. Navy helicopter squadron that operated the H-3 Sea King and CH-53E Sea Stallion, providing heavy-lift, combat support, and special operations aviation capabilities. HC-4 supported fleet operations across the Mediterranean, delivering critical cargo, conducting mine countermeasures, and providing vertical onboard delivery to the Sixth Fleet. The Invaders filled a unique role in naval aviation — providing the heavy-lift and specialized mission capability that complemented the lighter utility and ASW helicopter squadrons in the fleet.
Perfect For: HC-4 Invaders veterans, CH-53 and H-3 Sea King crews, Mediterranean fleet support aviators, heavy-lift helicopter enthusiasts, and Navy combat support patch collectors.
Invaders — heavy lift for the Mediterranean fleet.
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.
