I would disagree with the assertion that the formation sign is British. Yes, it is based on the British Winged Pegasus design, but I have never seen British insignia made with this rubbery material applied to felt. The manufacturing process screams Belgian or Dutch to me. Additionally, the felt looks rather red in the photo where the British used a decidedly maroon hue.

It’s British. 16th Air Assault Brigade patch.

Actually just realised it is the same as the older Para Pegasus too so not just 16th.

False memory of the Pegasus not having a rider threw me.

Are there any other British formation signs that use that rubbery material applied to the felt? I've only ever seen British formation signs that were printed or embroidered.
