re: DAAFAR Pilot Badges

There´s no need to vote for him, as usual he´ll win the elections with a 100% anyway.
Who else besides Chuck Norris can achieve that? :D

BTW the FAR already switched their ceremonial firearm to the SKS.

Re: DAAFAR Pilot Badges

Here some detailed info, thanks to Manolo the owner: https://cuba-militaria.org/effekten/

ompared to the land forces and navy, the air force/air defence (span. DAAFAR) has three another different classifying badges: for pilots, technicians and navigators. The basic design is for all three groups the same. Characteristic are the wings, the star in laurel wreath (above) and an indication of the grade (below). In the centre of the pilot’s badge the Cuban national coat of arms in colour is located; the navigator’s badge has a radar screen with the silhouette of Cuba and the technician’s badge has two crossed propellers which are underlayed with two crossed wrenches. Furthermore the technician’s badge has a red star in the centre. In contrast to the classifying badge above, there are five instead of four grades in the air force/air defence. The lowest grade has no indication of the grade; the highest grade has „Maestro“ as indication of the grade. In a different way from the others classifying badges, no Soviet badges served as model, but the badges of the old air force from the 1950s. At last it should be noted that this badge exists without the star in laurel wreath too.
