The naval ensign is like the national flag, but white.
Jan Zrzavy, 16 January 1998

The Naval Division of the Royal Fiji Military Forces was formed in 1974, four years after independence. As of about 3 years ago, the Fiji Navy had 6 patrol and coastal craft, 1 training vessel, and a presidential yacht (the Cagidonu). Fiji has traditionally relied heavily on New Zealand for defence arrangements, but since independence most of Fiji's army has been overseas on UN assignments. Apparently this is a major source of revenue for Fiji.
