This is a listing of the nationality markings used by military aircraft of the United Statesincluding those of the U. Air ForceU. NavyU. Marine CorpsU. Coast GuardU. Army and their Civil Aircraft Markings 2015. The Civil Air Patrol is also included for the World War II period because it engaged in combat operations primarily anti-submarine flights which its July charter has since explicitly forbidden. The star was painted only on the vertical tail, in either red the most often used color [1] or blue less likely, due to the strictly orthochromatic photography of that era, rendering the red star as a black one in period photos. As of 19 May all branches of the military, outside of the Western Front of Europe were to use a circular dark-blue field containing the single, five- pointed regular pentagram -outline white star, symbolic of a U. A tricolor was introduced by the US Army Air Service in February for commonality with the other allies, all of whom used similar roundels. American aircraft also used vertically-striped British and French style tricolors on the rudders during World War I, the British and French markings having the blue stripe forward, while American regulations specified that their aircraft have the red stripe forward although some of their aircraft had the colours in the French order. No connection existed between the US roundel and other Allied forces' military aircraft services, beyond the fact that the United States had joined the Allies of World War I and was using a tricolor roundel in what was now an available order. Tsarist aircraft often used a significantly larger white central circle, while the narrower red and blue rings on such large white-centered variant insignia were often separated with additional white rings. From the end of World War One until roughly Marine Corps aviation units added an American eagle atop the roundel and a fouled anchor superimposed behind the roundel, Civil Aircraft Markings 2015 the Eagle, Globe, and Anchor emblem on the fuselage sides in the manner of a unit insignia. In May the US adopted a red circle-centered white star in a dark blue circular field for all United States military Civil Aircraft Markings 2015. In the months after Pearl Harbor it was thought that the central red dot could be mistaken for a Japanese Hinomarufrom a distance and in May it was eliminated. On aircraft in service they were painted over with white. During NovemberUS forces participated in the Torch landings and for this a chrome yellow ring of unspecified thickness was temporarily added to the outside of the roundel to reduce incidents of Americans shooting down unfamiliar British aircraft, which could themselves be distinguished by a similar yellow outline on the RAF's "Type C. Civil Aircraft Markings 2015 of these solutions was entirely satisfactory as friendly fire incidents continued and so the US Civil Aircraft Markings 2015 initiated a study that discovered that the red wasn't the issue since color couldn't be determined from a distance anyway, but the Civil Aircraft Markings 2015 could be. After trying out several variations including an oblong roundel with two stars, they arrived at using white bars flanking the sides of the existing roundel, all with a red outline, which became official in June This still wasn't entirely satisfactory and at least one operational unit refused to add the red, resulting in bare white bars on the existing star roundel. The red outline was then replaced with a blue outline whose color exactly matched Civil Aircraft Markings 2015 round blue field that held the star in September On US Navy aircraft painted overall in gloss midnight blue starting inthe blue color of the roundels was similar to midnight blue, so the blue portion was eventually dispensed with and only the white portion of the roundel was painted on the aircraft. In the Pacific Theater, some British Commonwealth aircraft in service with the British Pacific Fleetand Royal New Zealand Air Forceas with Lend Lease Chance Vought F4U Corsairsbegan to officially sport the white "bars" as a more-or-less "universal" symbol on Allied aircraft opposing the Japanese, while also eliminating the red center of the roundels they used for the same reason the United States already had. Civil Aircraft Markings 2015 the USN would repaint all its aircraft from midnight blue to light grey over white and would use Civil Aircraft Markings 2015 the same roundel as the USAF again. Since then there have been some minor variations, mostly having to do with low-visibility versions of the star and bars roundel. Air superiority Fs eliminated the blue outline in the s, and later some aircraft replaced the blue and red with black or a countershaded color, or used a stencil to create an outlined "low-visibility" version. Almost all USAF aircraft now use low-visibility roundels in black or gray, with the full- color version limited to a small number of uncamouflaged aircraft such as the E-3 and E Partly due to the adoption of the "racing stripe" insignia on its aircraft, the United States Coast Guardunique Civil Aircraft Markings 2015 U. Official dates refers to when a new insignia was officially Civil Aircraft Markings 2015 but implementation was not always immediate. Center red circle now inscribed within a regular pentagon formed by inner vertices of star, making red smaller than first version. From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia.

Operation Torch — yellow varied in thickness, applied Civil Aircraft Markings 2015 roundels on fuselage and under wing but not overwing, but Civil Aircraft Markings 2015 units applied yellow borders on Civil Aircraft Markings 2015 roundels regardless. Yellow outermost ring likely inspired by similar, slightly darker hued British Type A. Experiments showed that at a distance, shapes were more important than colors, so bars were added to the roundel with an Insignia Red outline. Several units in the Pacific refused to paint the red outline but added white bars pending new orders for a blue outline. This was followed by an amendment to Technical Orderissued on 24 Septemberfor units in the field. On some US Navy aircraft Civil Aircraft Markings 2015 the Pacific the blue outline was lighter than the insignia blue. Insignia Blue lacked contrast with the Sea Blue or Black used on some aircraft and the Insignia Blue was dispensed with.
