Custom Apparel for the VAW-121 Bluetails Squadron

VAW-121 Bluetails Custom Squadron Shirts, Hoodies & Military Apparel

The VAW-121 "Bluetails" are one of the U.S. Navy's premier Carrier Airborne Early Warning Squadrons, operating the E-2D Advanced Hawkeye in support of aircraft carrier strike groups around the world. Homeported at Naval Station Norfolk, Virginia, the Bluetails provide airborne command and control, battle management, air surveillance, strike coordination, and early warning capabilities that are critical to modern naval operations.

With a history dating back to 1967, VAW-121 has participated in numerous deployments, multinational exercises, and combat operations, earning a reputation for operational excellence and mission readiness. Whether operating from the flight deck of a Nimitz-class or Ford-class aircraft carrier or supporting joint and coalition forces overseas, the Bluetails continue to serve as one of the Navy's most capable airborne command and control squadrons.

At Lucky Shot Tees, we're proud to create custom apparel inspired by the dedication, teamwork, and traditions that define VAW-121. From deployment shirts and command apparel to reunion merchandise and family apparel, every design is created to honor the Sailors who proudly wear the Bluetails patch.

Custom VAW-121 Squadron Shirts

Every deployment creates stories that deserve to be remembered. Long hours aboard the carrier, flight deck operations, night launches, combat missions, qualifications, and friendships forged at sea become part of a squadron's identity. Those experiences deserve more than generic military artwork.

Lucky Shot Tees creates original VAW-121 designs that capture the spirit of the Bluetails and the unique mission of the E-2D Advanced Hawkeye community. Our artwork can incorporate the Hawkeye's iconic radar dome, carrier operations, catapult launches, arrested recoveries, squadron mottos, deployment themes, aircraft silhouettes, callsigns, cruise dates, command milestones, and custom graphics designed specifically for your squadron.

Premium Apparel Worth Wearing

Squadron apparel should be comfortable enough to wear every day and durable enough to last long after the cruise has ended. Lucky Shot Tees offers premium-quality garments decorated using professional screen printing and embroidery to ensure every order meets the standards expected by today's Navy professionals.

In addition to custom T-shirts, we produce hoodies, long sleeve shirts, performance apparel, quarter-zips, embroidered hats, beanies, patches, stickers, drinkware, bags, and other custom merchandise that allows every member of the squadron to represent the Bluetails wherever they go.

Members simply select their preferred apparel style, choose their size, and complete payment online without the need for paper forms or collecting money. After the ordering period closes, production begins and orders can be shipped directly to the squadron, individual homes, or APO/FPO addresses whenever available.

This process saves valuable time while ensuring every member receives exactly what they ordered.
