President Vladimir Putin signed a decree on the Naval flag, according to which a number of Order and Guards Order flags of ships changed their configuration. So, if earlier the order was placed in the upper left corner of the panel, now it will be depicted in the center of the St. Andrew’s Cross. At the same time, the height of the order must correspond to a third of the width of the flag.

The decree also states that under no circumstances should ships lower the flag in front of the enemy. It is emphasized that each crew member is obliged to ” selflessly and courageously, without sparing his life, protect the Naval flag in battle.” If the panel is knocked down, it must be replaced with a spare one. In exceptional cases, ” the flag is subject to destruction by order of the commander of the ship.”

The document says that the flag is not raised on ships under repair, unless the crew of military personnel lives on it.
