Flag of Armed Forces of Ukraine ("Zbroyny syly
Ukrayiny" in Ukrainian). This flag was not adopted yet. But
probably it will be adopted in nearest future.

I visited Museum of Ukranian Armed Forces in Kiev in

flags books issued in 2007.
This image is the Colors of the Armed Forces of Ukraine

Flag of Air Defence ("Viyska protypovitryanoy
oborony" in Ukrainian). This flag was not adopted yet. But
probably it will be adopted in nearest future.

Ukraine seems to be following the Soviet practice (still
maintained in Russia also, I believe), of dividing its air force
into seperate tactical and air defense service branches. Thus
there is no single "Ukrainian Air Force".

This is the Flag of the AIr Defence. Most ex - soviet allies
maintain four arms of services: Army, Air Force, Navy and Air
Defence. On the site of the Ukrainian Armed Forces, this appears
clearly.

Air Defense Forces flag.
Joseph McMillan, 8 August 1999
The blue flag with three arrows is NOT the border guard flag,
but the Air Defence Force flag. [My translation using an
Ukrainian-English dictionary] This is a continuation of the
Soviet practice of maintaining seperate air force and air defence
force.

Colour for military units - The motto on the anverse side
(right side on this image): "For Ukraine, for her
liberty". Full name of military unit on the reverse side.
This flag was not adopted yet. But probably it will be adopted in
nearest future.
Victor Lomantsov, 26 June 2002
In the "prototype" image above the reverse
text reads literally "full name of military unit",
supposedly to be replaced with appropriate name in real flags.
