An air force ensign is a flag used by a national air force.
With the creation of independent air forces in the first half of the 20th century, a range of distinguishing flags and ensigns were adopted.[1] Such flags may often feature a roundel in the national colours.[2]
Notable examples include:
Royal Air Force Ensign
Royal Australian Air Force Ensign
Royal Canadian Air Force Ensign
Royal New Zealand Air Force Ensign
Indian Airforce Ensign
