French blazon describes the small red flag as a gonfalon.
Pascal Gross, 24 November 2000

It may be called a gonfalon in the original blazon, but it would be simply a flag on an English blazon (not a pennant, as it does not have a tapering end).
Santiago Dotor, 28 November 2000

Željko simply calls it a "flag" which it undoubtedly is and which is the safe option, whilst we are also informed that the French blazon names it a "gonfanon/gonfalon" which we all know is a type of Medieval flag that could also describe it. However, I have a third option and that is the Medieval term "lance pennon".
Since such a "pennon" could be either swallow-tailed or square-ended according to rank this would seem to fit the bill. Thus the blazon would become:
"Azure on a chief Or a cross pattée couped of the First and overall a lance in bend Argent with a pennon Gules".
