Official VT-7 Eagles Attack Instructor Shoulder Patches — US Navy Training Squadron Flight Instructor Embroidered Patch

The instructor patch — earned by the pilots who teach the next generation of jet aviators to fight.

Training Squadron 7 (VT-7), the “Eagles,” is the U.S. Navy’s advanced strike jet training squadron based at NAS Meridian, Mississippi, under Training Air Wing One. VT-7 operates the T-45C Goshawk, the Navy and Marine Corps’ advanced jet trainer, and provides the final phase of pilot training before student naval aviators receive their Wings of Gold and report to fleet replacement squadrons. VT-7 instructor pilots are experienced fleet aviators who return to the training command to pass on tactical knowledge and airmanship to the next generation. The “Attack” instructor patch variant signifies the strike warfare training track, preparing students for assignment to F/A-18 Hornet, F/A-18 Super Hornet, F-35C Lightning II, and EA-18G Growler squadrons.

Perfect For:
VT-7 Eagles instructor pilots and students, T-45 Goshawk aviators, NAS Meridian personnel, Training Air Wing One members, and Navy flight instructor patch collectors.
