1973/01 - New front, New frontier

1973

The Singapore Armed Forces (SAF) held a public competition to design a new emblem for the Republic of Singapore Air Force (RSAF).

In 1973, two years before the SADC was renamed the Republic of Singapore Air Force (RSAF), a public competition was held for a new design for the SADC's emblem. The winning entry, a yin-yang symbol within a stylised "S", was adopted to reflect the SADC's coming of age.

Official RSAF red and white roundel insignia featuring stylized Yin Yang design.

The yin-yang roundel was used by the RSAF from 1973 to 1990.
