Officially Licensed USMC VMA(AW)-242 Bats Patch — Marine All-Weather Attack Squadron A-6 Intruder Embroidered Patch
The Bats — VMA(AW)-242 flying in the dark with the A-6 Intruder.
VMA(AW)-242 "Bats" carried the all-weather attack designation when operating the A-6E Intruder, and the Bats nickname perfectly suited a squadron whose primary mission was striking targets at night and in weather that kept other aircraft on the ground. The A-6 Intruder's advanced navigation and bombing systems allowed the Bats to deliver ordnance with precision in zero-visibility conditions, making them one of the Marine Corps' most lethal night-attack assets.
Perfect For:
VMA(AW)-242 Bats veterans, A-6E Intruder night-attack crews, Marine all-weather attack aviators, and USMC attack squadron lineage patch collectors.
Bats. Night attack. VMA(AW)-242.
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.
Yes. If you see a note like “bulk reruns available,” that means we can support group orders or reruns. If you don’t see it, contact us with the unit/squadron and quantity and we’ll confirm options.
