Established in March 1915, the "Cuerpo Aéreo
del Ejército" adopted its first marking in 1928. It was the
same markings as used today - Roundel:
upside-down red triangle charged with white 5 points star on blue
disc. Modified national flag was used as rudder stripes. See <www.skytamer.com>.
Same marking appear also in Jane's 1945.
Changing the name in 1953 (other source give 23 April 1952 - <www.worldairforces.com>)
to Fuerza Aérea Ejército de Cuba (FAEC) was followed by a new
markings in 1955. The new roundel was
constitued from a white 5 points star bordered in red and a blue
bar. Tail marking was the same as before. See <www.skytamer.com>
and a photo at <www.airliners.net//440841>.
Formation of Fuerza Aérea Rebelde on 2 May 1958 (later to be
Fuerza Aérea Revolucionaria on 1 January 1959) brogut to the
adoption of a new roundel (while keeping the tail insignia). A
red triangle charged with white star with blue-white-blue bars
(the lower one halp size of the uppers). see <www.skytamer.com>
and a photo at <www.airliners.net/440844>.
However in 1963 the first roundel was re-adopted. See: <www.skytamer.com>
and photo at <www.airliners.net/440846>.
No source report it, but seems that in some stage, a blue
upside-down triangle charged with white star was in use. See <www.airliners.net/441128>.
The L-39 was in service between 1982-1998 so this roundel was
maybe a "low visability" version.
