After months of discussion, it looks like the final decision on how the Koninklijke Luchtmacht (KLu, Royal Netherlands Air Force) F-35 squadron badges will look like has been made.
Last year October the first F-35 with 322sq badge was spotted. The 322 badge showed the famous parrot Polly Grey, surrounded by a crest.
313sq later painted a badge of their Tiger without a crest on F-028. Apparently a discussion about uniformity (crest or no crest) started which then finally resulted in this look.
We expect that from now on all the 313sq Lightning IIs (thirteen on strength and a couple still on order) will be sporting this look in the near future.
However you like it, crest or no crest, it is much better than nothing!
