The series of the Russian and Soviet naval flags, ensigns and
pennants that is presented at
Russian Navy website consists
of images claimingly according the book of V. Dygalo Flot gosudarstva
Rossiiskogo. Otkuda i chto na flote poshlo
[dygXX].

The flags of this pattern (white ensign with blue base and big red
star and H&S in white field) are all marked as used from 1950-1992.
However, certain flags of that pattern are
adopted in 1935 and 1938. Moreover the appropriate flags of the
first pattern were obsolete in
1935. I guess that these flags are adopted before 1950, but for the
lack of info I designate them all as 1950 (as designated on the
original site). The dates of use of this flags remain unknown.

The source “Flag-znamya korablya, Russian Navy website”
have several incorrect flags.

Military vessels’ pennant.

There was a project (not adopted) of navy ensign in WWII — red with
blue Andrew’s cross bordered white.

Clearly influenced by the russian ensign
with addition of soviet red.
