Official VMFA-311 Tomcats F-35C PVC Shoulder Patch — Marine Fighter Attack Squadron F-35C Lightning II PVC Patch
The Tomcats enter the fifth-generation arena — VMFA-311 in the F-35C Lightning II.
Marine Fighter Attack Squadron 311 (VMFA-311), the "Tomcats," operates the F-35C Lightning II from MCAS Miramar, California, under MAG-11 and the 3rd Marine Aircraft Wing. The F-35C is the carrier-variant of the Joint Strike Fighter, designed to operate from the flight decks of the Navy's aircraft carriers while bringing stealth, advanced sensor fusion, and network-centric warfare capability to the Marine Corps' fighter attack mission. VMFA-311's transition to the F-35C represents the Marine Corps' commitment to maintaining fifth-generation airpower that can deploy from both shore bases and carrier decks.
The Tomcats trace their lineage back to December 1, 1942, when the squadron was commissioned as VMF-311 at Cherry Point. The squadron flew combat missions in World War II, Korea, and Vietnam, and most recently operated the F/A-18 Hornet before transitioning to the Lightning II. The F-35C's combination of low-observable stealth, advanced electronic warfare systems, the Distributed Aperture System, and the ability to fuse data from every sensor on the battlefield into a single pilot display makes it the most capable fighter aircraft ever deployed by the Marine Corps. This PVC shoulder patch variant offers superior durability, water resistance, and vivid three-dimensional detail.
Perfect For:
VMFA-311 Tomcats aircrew and maintainers, F-35C Lightning II enthusiasts, MAG-11 and 3rd MAW personnel, MCAS Miramar Marines, and fifth-generation fighter aviation PVC patch collectors.
Tomcats. Fifth-gen. Lightning strikes.
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.
