Made of plastic, the front plate features Mitchell's name engraved with the text "Topgun 1" below as well as an applique featuring the emblem of the Fighter Weapons School on the left side. Two pins are fitted on the rear to attach the badge to the costume. The patch exhibits signs of wear from age and use, including light scuffs and scratches on the paint, but remains in excellent overall condition.
