Flag of the Supreme Commander of the Armed Forces - Image by Željko Heimer, 30 October 1999

The flag of the Supreme Commander of the Armed Forces of the Republic of Croatia is exactly the same flag as the flag of the President of the Republic, who is, by default, the Supreme Commander. The flag was originally adopted at the same time as the national flag, on 21 December 1990, and the 1999 Decision only confirms its use by the Navy.

The flag of the Minister of Defence (photo, leftmost flag) is square, red, bordered with a border of 20 squares in the national colors. The upper hoist corner square is red, the next square along both edges is white, then blue, then again repeating red-white-blue until the other corner; therefore, the upper right and lower left corners are white and the lower right corner is blue.

In the middle of the flag is placed the emblem of the Minister of Defense. This is the same oval as on the flags of the President of the Parliament and of the Prime Minister, but instead of the letters "RH", there are a sword, with a white lozenge on the hilt and an olive branch, both yellow crossed in saltire, and below them a yellow letter "M". The size of the oval is 43% in height and 34% in width, that is somewhat bigger than in the two aforementioned flags. This emblem is the official emblem of the Minister of Defence, as prescribed in a Law defining the rank and function emblems in the Armed Forces.
