VFA-25, the Fist of the Fleet, carries on the proud attack tradition of VA-25 in the strike fighter era, flying the F/A-18C Hornet from NAS Lemoore and deploying with Pacific Fleet carriers. Inheriting both the name and the legacy of one of naval aviation’s most storied attack squadrons, VFA-25 has conducted strike operations from the Persian Gulf to Afghanistan, punching hard in every theater where carrier aviation has been called upon.
