Web archive of free hi-res Military Insignia 3D images

 


Hi, I’m Serge, a Toronto-based artist/designer/illustrator. It’s been over a decade now, since I first developed my unique style for depicting heraldry and insignia. As time went by, my artwork became highly sought after by militaries, law enforcement agencies and first responders (to name a few) from around the world.

From using such images in reports, briefings and presentations, to online and offline publishing, to movies and documentaries, to creating high quality morale-boosting merchandize - sky is literally the limit to how my artwork is being used.



My dream, as well as part of my legacy, always was to create a web-based catalog of such hi res images downloadable free of charge and accessible by everyone. I am planning to start with Canadian military and law enforcement insignia; then continue with the same for the United States, Great Britain, Australia and New Zealand, getting it down at least to regimental level. As that goal is achieved, I am planning to expand this project to include other countries.

 Your donations would help me with professional web development, domain hosting and other administrative tasks. Your funding would also help me make more time to focus exclusively on the project.

Donate on GoFundMe

Your contribution will be greatly appreciated, including by those who serve or have served. Thank you for your support

Ukrainian Air Assault Forces - AAFU Emblem and Branch Flag

 


The Ukrainian Air Assault Forces (Ukrainian: Десантно-штурмові війська України, romanized: Desantno-shturmovi viiska Ukrainy, abbreviated as DShV[a] or AAFU), known until 2017 as the Ukrainian Airmobile Forces are the airborne forces of Ukraine. 

After the Dissolution of the Soviet Union in 1991, several Ukraine-based units from the Soviet Airborne Forces were absorbed into the newly created Ukrainian Ground Forces, where they remained until 2016, when they separated to become one of five branches of the Armed Forces of Ukraine. 

The Air Assault Forces are in constant combat readiness. They are the high-mobility branch of the military, responsible for air assaults and military parachuting operations. Before the Russo-Ukrainian War they were also the main forces sent by Ukraine to peacekeeping missions around the world. They are considered the elite of Ukraine's armed forces

Ukrainian Special Operations Forces - SSO ZSU

 


The Special Operations Forces (SSO) are one of the five branches of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, with headquarters in Kyiv, Ukraine.

The branch was formed based on military units of the Ukrainian Chief Directorate of Intelligence (HUR), which were originally formed of the Soviet GRU Spetsnaz based in Ukraine (then Ukrainian SSR). In 2014, Special Forces Command numbered over 4,000 spetsnaz operatives, all of whom are professional soldiers.

The catchphrase of Svyatoslav the Brave, "I Come at You!" (Ukrainian: Іду на ви!), was officially adopted as the organization's motto.

In June 2019, the 140th Special Operations Centre was certified as a special ops unit that can be involved in the NATO Response Force, the first from a non-NATO-member state. As of 1 January 2022, the number of the Special Operations Forces had increased
