VX-20 Force — testing the future of naval aviation, one sortie at a time.
Air Test and Evaluation Squadron 20 (VX-20), known as "Force," is a United States Navy test squadron based at Naval Air Station Patuxent River, Maryland. VX-20 conducts operational test and evaluation of maritime patrol, reconnaissance, and transport aircraft and systems — including the P-8A Poseidon, C-40A Clipper, KC-130J, E-6B Mercury, and other platforms critical to naval aviation. The squadron's test pilots, naval flight officers, and engineers fly cutting-edge aircraft and systems in demanding test scenarios to verify they meet fleet requirements before reaching operational squadrons. VX-20 is where the Navy's next-generation capabilities are proven, validated, and refined. This patch represents the test warriors of Force who push aircraft and systems to their limits so the fleet can fight with confidence.
