Height of waves = 3/10 of flag-height. Size of central emblem (crown and sabre)=1/5 of flag-length.
Victor Lomantsov, 08 Apr 2000, quoting from www.chat.ru/~heraldica

Assuming that this flag’s ratio is 2:3, 3/10ths of the height and 1/5th of the width are exactly the same: (1/5)×(3/2)=3/10. I hope there is some mistake in these measures, as the emblem this way looks certainly too small.
