it’s a good idea, Thobbes, to (re)build) an “Andorra Air Force” !

but, at first, it’s surprising to see your starting ‘fleet’, composed of Russian (& Chinese) aircraft types !!!

And… let’s not forget a presidential helicopter , as ‘Air Force One’ 😮 e.g. ;

for the ‘official’ roundel, I propose this one ;

funny yours, Etienne

better ,but little (b/w) views to the roundel ;

(but it seems impossible to find a colors’view..)

friendly, Etienne

&… to close it for today ;

The Criquet was also exported to Cambodia, Laos, and pre-partition Vietnam (the planes were inherited by the South Vietnamese AF shortly thereafter).

Markings

Luftwaffe-standard RLM-71 (dark green) was used until that paint ran out, afterwards a NATO-standard olive drab was used. Some planes in Indochina had large white squares as recognition devices. The South Vietnamese planes had large (presumably to cover the French) markings, before the advent of US military aid VNAF aircraft used a roundel as seen above. The Laotian and Cambodian planes were similarly marked with large national emblems to cover the French.

Here you have an interesting, extended & various choice ;
