What is the second mark that is on the tail of YELLOW aircrafts?
The lower mark is Yellow squadrom emblem, but the mark that is on the top I still do not know.
Does anyone know what mark is that?

Tks.

It's the Free Erusean Air Force roundel. Note its similarity to the Erusean flag.

i have noticed that, and the Erusean flag from far away looks like a mini Nazi flag, but no Swastika on it
Su-37
I looked at the FEAF roundel, it dosn't look like too much like the Roundel on hte Yellow aircraft. It could though be a alternative version of the FEAF roundel, possibly that round area in the center with the "Triangle" omitted. I'll try to get a closer look at it later and see what I can say.

As for the part about the Erusean flag resembling the Nazi Flag. I would not be too suprised, since their gov't was supposidly facist according to different sources (in game and online), and the Yellow Su-37s were supposed to be based off of a scheme that the Bf 109s wore during WWII.

they were faciest's, but, they were good stratigest's. by using Stonehenge, they did have ISAF at bay, like the Nazis had the world, and then they came in with a come-from-behind victory and destroyed them. and the Messerschmidt BF-109 fighters DID were that paint scheme, but it was a little different, decided by the area of deployment

I always though the similarity to the nazi flag was intentional, their are many WWII allusions in AC4.

Fascists were never stereotyped to be bad strategists. Especially considering the Nazis in World War II.

Yeah, the similarities can be drawn up pretty easily. Erusea -> Fascism <- Nazi Germany

They both share that same root, so the similarities are clear. To make the similarity even more convincing, what other kind of antagonist would Erusea be? The style of Erusea doesn't seem to reflect much Communism, either, so yeah. laugh.gif (Besides, they explicitly state that they're Fascists at certain points throughout the game)

Yeah, their even used to be a thread about the similarities to WWII...IDK where it is now of course

The Erusian roundel and the air force marking are a little different. On the Yellows' wings and fins it's sorta hollowed out, leaving just the decagon outline. Look at the marking on the wing, it's clearest there.

My TV screen is "considerably" wide to see details on that mark and that does not look like FEAF roundel.
I have no idea what that mark is all about.

These are the authoritative references, from NAMCO. The tail roundel matches the wing roundel, which is the device from the center of the Erusean flag, with reversed colors

Those pictures are incredibly 1337.

That is pretty good, and I can also confirm it by looking at the Yellow Su-37 from AC-5 (that detail view can be so useful sometime.)

Sorry, I was referring to the differences betwen the AF insignia and what the Yellow aircraft had. I know where the insigias are, you don't have to tell me otherwise I wouldn't have posted in the thread and pointed out the difference.
