The Group Commander's pennant (plamenac komandanta sastava) prescribed in the 1937 law is a triangular pennant vertically divided into the horizontal Yugoslav tricolour at hoist and a white fly. The hoist part is 1/3 of the length, i.e. 1/2 the hoist, since the overall ratio is 2:3. The width of the white stripe is 1/4 of the hoist in the middle of the hoist (i.e., the coloured stripes are wider at hoist than the white stripe).

The masthead pennant (plamenac ratnih brodova) is prescribed in Article 9 of the 1922 law. It is a long white pennant, from the middle to fly converging to a point and ending with a white tassel. On the first third of the length, it is in the national tricolour colours. The ratio of the flag is 1:100.

The 1937 law kept this pennant.
