Royal Air Force Roundel - Iconic Target Logo Explained #283515 (License: Personal Use)

Its design features a central red disc, surrounded by a white ring and an outer blue ring, derived from the French cockade and standardized for visibility and recognition. Over time, it became a symbol beyond aviation-embraced by the 1960s mod movement and featured in music, fashion, and graphic design.
