Custom Aircraft Tail Flash HAT – Your Unit, Your Design | UV Leatherette

Custom Aircraft Tail Flash HAT – Your Unit, Your Design | UV Leatherette

Don't see your unit on the board? We'll build it.

Every squadron has a tail flash that means something — your aircraft, your colors, your story. We'll reproduce it exactly as it appears on the aircraft, in full color, on a precision UV-printed leatherette patch. Just follow the steps below and we handle the rest.

How to order:

  1. Pick Your Hat — select your hat style and color from the options above
  2. Enter Your BASE — the installation your unit is assigned to (e.g. Dyess AFB, JBER, Peterson SFB)
  3. Enter Your UNIT — wing or squadron designation (e.g. 130th AW, 55th RQS, 403rd Wing)
  4. Enter Your AIRCRAFT — the airframe your unit flies (e.g. C-130J, HH-60, C-17, KC-135)
  5. Upload a Tail Flash Image — a photo of the aircraft tail, unit patch, or any reference image helps us match it exactly (optional but highly recommended)
  6. Squadron Option — add your squadron name to the patch for +$8, or select "No Squadron" to keep it tail-flash only

Once your order is placed, we'll build a digital design proof and send it for your approval before production begins.

  • Full-color UV-printed leatherette patch, precision laser-cut
  • 1 digital design proof included.
  • Mounted on a structured, adjustable snapback trucker cap
  • Made to order — allow 6–9 business days for production after proof approval
  • Squadron or bulk orders (10+)? See bulk pricing & request a quote

Accurate details = faster turnaround. The proof is built exactly as you describe it.
