In April 2001, VFA-87 deployed on a Persian Gulf cruise enforcing the no fly zone over Southern Iraq aboard USS Enterprise until the September 11 attacks occurred. The squadron was then held on station along with the entire Enterprise battle group, to conduct first strike combat missions over Afghanistan against embedded Taliban targets. VFA-87 returned to NAS Oceana in November 2001.

The squadrons’ Indian head unit marking on the vertical stabilisers are also in colour with red tips to the feathers on the “war bonnet” and the word “War Party” . Her national insignia are dark gray. Note the red Safety "S" award below the cockpit on another picture later in the year.
