The Astral Crown is a gold crown surmounted with eight low points. The centrals and laterals points are topped with a star, with an unspecified number of points, between two wings. In heraldry an astral crown is mounted atop the shields of coats of arms of units belonging to some air forces or the personal arms of its distinguished commanders. Its creation became necessary after the founding of the Royal Air Force in the UK, because there was no Roman military award device for Aerial warfare equivalent to the Naval crown for navies and the Camp crown for armies. ==Gallery== File:Coat of arms of the Chilean Air Force.svg|An astral crown in the coat of arms of the Chilean Air Force File:1227 (Sidcup) Squadron ATC crest.jpg|An astral crown in the emblem of the 1227 (Sidcup) ATC Squadron (RAF) File:2070 (Glenfield) ATC Squadron Crest.png|Emblem of the 2070 (Glenfield) ATC Squadron (RAF) File:Portuguese_Air_Force_COA.png|An aeronautical coronet (Portuguese astral crown) in the coat of arms of the Portuguese Air Force 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Astral crown」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
