Officially Licensed USMC AH-1 Cobra “Since 1969” Patch

Over fifty years of Marine firepower — and still counting.

The AH-1 Cobra entered Marine Corps service in 1969, and in the decades since, it has become the most iconic attack helicopter in Marine aviation history. From its earliest combat missions in Vietnam through the Persian Gulf War, Iraq, Afghanistan, and countless deployments to the Western Pacific, the Cobra has been the Marine ground commander’s most reliable source of aerial firepower. The “Since 1969” designation on this patch celebrates the aircraft’s remarkable longevity — a testament to the soundness of the original design and the continuous upgrades that have kept the Cobra relevant through more than half a century of combat. Created by the Skid Kids community, this officially licensed patch is a salute to endurance, lethality, and the Marines who have flown the Cobra generation after generation.

Perfect For:
AH-1 Cobra pilots and crews past and present, Marine attack helicopter community members, Skid Kids and Popasmoke members, and Marine aviation heritage collectors.

Since 1969 — the Cobra never stops.
