US Navy Fighter Squadron FITRON VF-31, also known as the Tomcatters, is a fighter squadron that has been in service since 1948. The squadron has primarily operated the F-14 Tomcat, a twin-engine, supersonic fighter aircraft designed for air superiority and fleet defense.
VF-31 has been involved in numerous conflicts and operations throughout its history, including the Vietnam War, the Gulf War, and Operation Enduring Freedom. During the Gulf War, VF-31 was part of the carrier battle group that launched the first airstrikes against Iraq.
In addition to its combat missions, VF-31 has also participated in a variety of training exercises and operations, including joint training with NATO forces and support for humanitarian missions. The squadron has won numerous awards and accolades for its performance, including the Battle Efficiency Award, which is awarded to the top performing squadron in the fleet.
In 2006, VF-31 transitioned from the F-14 Tomcat to the F/A-18E Super Hornet, a newer and more advanced fighter aircraft. The squadron continues to operate the F/A-18E Super Hornet today, providing air support and air superiority for US Navy operations around the world.
