The general design is similar to early
19th cent. regimental flags.

During a report upon the Crimea Crisis a
Russian Flag could be seen. Ratio like national flag, i.e. 2:3, design
similar to the Defence Minister's flag, but with silver double-eagle and without
fringes, red disc and wreath. So my first guess is, it has something to do with
the Ministry of Defence.

I notice this flag uses the 1858-1883
colors, which is especially evident when comparing with the
minister's flag, which uses the
national colors. Any idea why?
