The Air Force of Djibouti (Force Aerienne du Djibouti uses a roundel of concentric disks of light blue, green and white (diameters being respectively 36, 25, 12, based on my measuring of the figure in the Album 2000 [pay00]) with a red five-pointed star inscribed in the white disk. A marginal note to the figure says that the national flag is painted on the fin.

Cochrane and Elliot (1998) [c2e98] note the the national flag is used as rudder/tail boom insignia ( http://www.skytamer.com/roundels/djibouti/01.htm). It is not a rudder insignia but fin flash as in the photo at http://www.scramble.nl/dj.htm. Force Aerienne du Djibouti was formed in 1977 and not in 1983.
