Hi dmlavan, good question

And you came to the right place.

The images below are what we used to get started for the Kill Flags Mod.

* Capital ships we're also marked over the IJN flag eg: BB, CV, CVE
From what we have researched, the Battle Flags themselves we're all homemade too and to no real standard:
( We would love to here more from a RL expert/boat veteran )

See the Battle Flags site for a good intro and examples of all the different flags from real boats:

SQK774 - thanks a lot! Actually, it was your kill flags mod that got me interested in looking at battle flags and conning tower marks.
I can't imagine how much time/effort it takes to keep making those flags. I've downloaded FooFighter's skin for my current career boat (USS Sailfish SS-192), but probably won't be asking for a battle flag until the career is over - one way or another.
