Officially Licensed US Navy VAL-4 Black Ponies Patch — Vietnam’s OV-10 Bronco Legends

The Black Ponies of VAL-4 flew OV-10 Broncos low and slow over the Mekong Delta — and became legends doing it.

Light Attack Squadron 4 (VAL-4), the Black Ponies, operated the OV-10A Bronco during the Vietnam War, providing close air support for Navy SEALs, riverine patrol boats, and ground forces in the Mekong Delta. This embroidered patch preserves the Black Ponies’ iconic identity. VAL-4’s pilots flew their twin-turboprop Broncos into the most dangerous fire zones in the delta, delivering ordnance with precision at low altitude. The Black Ponies became one of the most requested and respected close air support units in Vietnam, earning a legendary reputation that endures in naval aviation lore.
