The color of the Croatian Air Forces, a unit flag and not an "Air Force ensign", is dark blue with the Air Force badge, made of a winged square, above the State coat of arms and a circular ribbon with the name of the "unit".

Željko Heimer, 9 August 1999

Hrvatsko ratno zrokoplovstvo refers to the Croatian War Corps.

The Air Force uses a blue roundel with two red squares set diagonally, adopted in 1994. Other reported designs, for instance with reversed colors ([c2e98]) are erroneous.
