Album 1995 [pie95] says ratio is ≅5:7 and shows a blue flag with the emblem of the Navy in the middle and thin yellow orle (line near the border). The naval emblem consists of the shield of thenational coat of arms infront of the two crossed anchors, at the top the Sun and above all a ribbon with inscription «MARINA DE GUERRA DEL PERU». This flag may be still in use; it is not included inAlbum 2000 [pay00] as it does not comes into its scope.

It’s depicted in a book about the Peruvian Navy,El Mar de Grau y la Marina de Guerra del Peru [pcy87], of 1987. How likely that it is still in use?
Joseph McMillan, 04 Nov 2002
I received already infos from Peru, including the flag of the Navy. Unfortunately those infos will be available in my Bulletin [frp] only in 2001 (next millenium).

The main difference is the color of the anchors — yellow in [pie95], white in this version. The rest is mainly issues of detail depiction, for the emblem. Flagwise the ratio difference may be relevant: ≅5:7vs. 2:3.

According toAlbum 2000 [pay00], 1:1 white flag with red border and thecoat of arms in the middle. The border is shown as wide 1/10 of the hoist (cf.1/6 inFlaggenbuch [neu39]). The height of the emblem is about 1/3 of hoist (cf.Flaggenbuch [neu39] about1/2).
Željko Heimer, 31 Oct 2002
Same asthe one on theAlbum 2000 [pay00] but for the measures of the border, being 1/6 of the hoist, and the height of theemblem, being 1/2 of the hoist.

National Geographic 1917 Flag Number [gmc17] #672 shows the jack as same asFlaggenbuch.

Album 2000 [pay00] says ratio is ≅2:9 and shows a white triangular pennant with wide red border around all edges and in the middle a black horizontally set anchor. This is totally didferent to any otherprevious source, and therefore probably rather new.
Željko Heimer, 31 Oct 2002
Album 1995 [pie95] shows a ≅1:7 triangular pennant vertically divided in red-white-red with a black horizontal anchor in the middle. This is a “transitional version” between the1917 and 1939 on one side and2000 on the other. There is at least small question of validity.
byŽeljko Heimer, 04 Nov 2002
Flaggenbuch [neu39] shows a ≅1:20triangular pennant vertically divided in red-white-red. The hoist size of the pennant is given as 9, but no other unit is shown. Oddly. Maybe only the hoist size is prescribed and length might be different, but I don’t think that Neubecker means here 9 cm, since otherwise when he gives absolute units he always write "cm" beside the number.

National Geographic 1917 Flag Number [gmc17] says:
669. Commision Pennant.
Same asFlaggenbuch (≅1:20).

TheAlbum 2000 [pay00] says that the Navy Aircraft Marking is theCivil flag on fin. (Identical to theAirforce Aircraft Marking.)

Book [c2e98] shows this marking.

Book [whe86] shows aregular flash but charged with anchor on white stripe (as seen also atthis WAF page). (This photo at theScramble.NL website shows a fin flash but it too small for being charged with an anchor.)

Red white red roundel with black anchor overall (but under two central disks), according to theAlbum 2000 [pay00]. (Based on theAirforce Aircraft roundel.)
