Official Naval Air Weapons Station China Lake PVC Patch — PVC Patch
Where Weapons Are Born
China Lake is where America’s most advanced air weapons go from concept to reality. This PVC patch represents the Naval Air Weapons Station in the Mojave Desert where the Navy, Marine Corps, and their industry partners develop, test, and evaluate the air-launched weapons systems that give American aviation its lethal edge.
Naval Air Weapons Station China Lake occupies over 1.1 million acres of the Mojave Desert in California — a vast, isolated facility that provides the space and security needed for weapons development and testing. China Lake has been at the forefront of air weapons technology since World War II, contributing to the development of the Sidewinder missile, the HARM anti-radiation missile, and countless other weapons systems. The station supports air test and evaluation squadrons including VX-31, the Dust Devils, who conduct operational testing of new weapons and tactics. For the military and civilian personnel who work at China Lake, the mission is simple: ensure that American aviators have the best weapons in the world.
Perfect For:
NAWS China Lake personnel, weapons development professionals, VX-31 squadron members, test and evaluation community, defense technology enthusiasts, and military installation patch collectors
China Lake — where American air power gets its edge.
