EA-6B Prowler 1000 Flight Hours Leather Patch — A Thousand Hours of Electronic Warfare One thousand hours in the Prowler means one thousand hours of jamming, suppressing, and owning the electromagnetic spectrum. The EA-6B Prowler was the military's premier tactical electronic warfare aircraft for decades, and accumulating 1,000 flight hours in the airframe represents years of demanding operational flying. Each hour included carrier operations, combat deployments, and training missions where Prowler crews honed the art of suppression of enemy air defenses. This leather milestone patch recognizes aviators who logged a thousand hours in one of the most complex and crew-intensive aircraft ever to fly from a carrier deck. Perfect For: EA-6B Prowler veterans with 1,000+ hours, VMAQ and VAQ squadron alumni, electronic warfare officers, and flight hour milestone collectors. A thousand hours of jamming — earned one sortie at a time.
