VF-302

Fighter Squadron 302 (VF-302), known as the "Stallions," was a United States Naval Reserve fighter squadron established on 21 May 1971. As part of Reserve Carrier Air Wing 30 (CVWR-30), VF-302 operated primarily out of Naval Air Station Miramar, California. The squadron flew the F-8 Crusader and later transitioned to the F-4 Phantom II before becoming one of the first reserve units to operate the F-14A Tomcat in the 1980s. VF-302 participated in numerous training exercises and contributed to the combat readiness of the Naval Reserve until its disestablishment on 11 September 1994.
