Welcome to Strike Fighter Squadron (VFA) 31’s website! Located on board Naval Air Station Oceana in Virginia. The “Tomcatters” report operationally to Commander, Carrier Air Wing (CVW) 8 and administratively to Commander, Strike Fighter Wing, Atlantic. We fly the single seat variant of the Navy’s strike fighter aircraft, the F/A-18E Super Hornet. The F/A-18E model was designed for traditional air superiority, fighter escort, reconnaissance, aerial refueling, close air support, forward air control (airborne), air defense suppression and day/night precision strike, while at the same time increasing strike mission survivability and supplements the fleet air defense.
