Officially Licensed US Navy VT-22 Golden Eagles Sticker — Training the Next Generation at Kingsville
Because every strike fighter pilot in the fleet started by sweating through the training command, and VT-22 made sure they were ready.
VT-22, the Golden Eagles, is a training squadron based at NAS Kingsville, Texas, flying the T-45C Goshawk as part of the Chief of Naval Air Training (CNATRA) advanced strike pipeline. The Golden Eagles take Student Naval Aviators who’ve been selected for jets and put them through the rigorous advanced training syllabus — carrier qualifications, formation flying, instruments, and tactical fundamentals. NAS Kingsville’s been producing jet pilots since the Navy realized South Texas skies were perfect for training, and VT-22 carries that tradition forward with every class that earns their Wings of Gold. If you’ve got a Golden Eagle sticker, you’ve got a connection to the pipeline that feeds the fleet.
Perfect For: VT-22 Golden Eagles instructors and former students, NAS Kingsville training wing personnel, T-45 Goshawk community members, and any Naval Aviator who earned their jet wings with the Golden Eagles.
