Aviador Watch Red Flag AV-1191-7 New RBF

AVIADOR pilot's watch AV-1191-7 with the emblem of the combat exercises "Red Flag".

"Red Flag" (red flag in Spanish) it is the name of the air combat training exercises that take place every year at Nellis Air Base (Nevada) in which pilots from the United States, NATO and other allied countries participate. They are very realistic war games that last two weeks and whose objective is to train pilots for real combat situations.

The first edition of the "Red Flag" it took place in the United States in 1957, during the Vietnam War, a scenario in which the USAF counted numerous casualties due to the limited combat experience of its pilots. It was then decided to launch an advanced training program in air combat that was called "Red Flag". Later, the allies of the United States, members of NATO, would take part in these war exercises.

The name "red flag" it is probably due to the fact that the participating air forces were divided into two groups: the blue forces (blue forces in English) with the role of airspace defenders and the red forces (red forces) with the role of aggressors, alluding to the communist forces. Hence the exercise took the name of "red flag" (red flag).
