Usage[edit source]
{{air force|nation|variant|size=optional|name=optional}}
Produces a flag icon attached to a wikilinked national air force article.
- Parameters
- nation — Use either the name of the nation or the three-letter ISO 3166-1 alpha-3 country code
- variant (optional) — Specifies an alternate (historical) flag to use. This parameter is documented by the appropriate template in Category:Country data templates. Note that the standard behaviour of this template is to use the

- name (optional) — Can be used to change the wikilink display text

The {{flagicon}} template can be used to display the air force flag by itself, using the air force variant as a template parameter:
- {{flagicon|UK|air force}} → File:Ensign of the Royal Air Force.svg
Implementation notes[edit source]
By default, this template shows the standard national flag for the selected country, following by a wikilink to "Country Air Force". Both of these items can be changed by adding specific parameters to the appropriate country_data template (complete set found in Category:Country data templates).
To use a different flag, such as the air force ensign for the nation, use:
- flag alias-air force = image name of air force ensign
To use a different name for the wikilinked air force article, use:
- link alias-air force = article name
