The british copied the french one during WW1 because the union jack looked too much like the german cross from the ground leading to a lot of friendly fire. They just switched the colours to differentiate themselves from the french.

I’m gonna be really honest, I never understood the design choice. Call me stupid, but I don’t understand the point of going into a firefight with a bullseye drawn on you
Edit: guys… It’s a joke. A funny haha. It’s borderline a reference to a cartoon I watched like 20 years ago (don’t remember the name; family of 4, all spies/secret agents. Teenaged daughter goes into battle with a roundel on her shirt and gets called out for it). You guys take things _way_ too seriouslyÂ

The Lithuania roundels means ‘Glider Flying in Progress’, when placed as a signage on an airport.
TIL that half of Europe paints fucking targets on their “backs”.
Oh and one country’s symbol is a footnote.

The Nazi resemblance and the historical connotations aside, the German military emblems in general are honestly the coolest looking of them all. Portugal and Montenegro are cool too.

Latvia, Denmark and Turkey needs to get together and decide which two need to come up with something more imaginative.
Edit: Italy and Bulgaria too but Bulgaria only flies Soviet planes anyway so it can wait.
