Patrol Squadron 91 (VP-91), known as the "Black Cats," was a U.S. Navy Reserve patrol squadron established on 1 November 1970 at Naval Air Station Moffett Field, California. The squadron operated the P-3 Orion maritime patrol aircraft, conducting anti-submarine warfare, reconnaissance, and maritime patrol missions primarily in the Pacific theater. VP-91 participated in numerous exercises and deployments throughout the Cold War, supporting both national defense and allied operations. The squadron was disestablished on 31 March 1999 as part of post-Cold War force reductions and the closure of NAS Moffett Field.
