The Mighty Shrikes of VFA-94 fly the F/A-18C Hornet from NAS Lemoore and carrier decks across the Pacific Fleet. Named for the shrike—a bird that impales its prey—the Mighty Shrikes have been delivering ordnance to target with precision and professionalism since the Cold War era, deploying to the Western Pacific and Persian Gulf in support of every major contingency operation the Navy has conducted.
