Hello all, today I’d like to suggest the low-visibility version of the Seal of the Belgian Military Forces as a decal in War Thunder. This subdued variant of the emblem is widely used on Belgian Army vehicles, mostly starting since 2014, and would be a realistic addition for future modern Belgian and NATO vehicle customization.
TL;DR: A low-visibility Belgian Military Forces seal, commonly used on Belgian armored and wheeled vehicles.
History
History
The Seal of the Belgian Military Forces (Forces Armées Belges / Belgische Strijdkrachten) represents the unified identity of Belgium’s armed forces.
For operational use, particularly on land vehicles, the emblem is most often applied in low-visibility form, typically in:
- Black
- Dark green
- Dark grey
This approach is typical NATO doctrine, where national markings must remain visible for identification while minimizing visual and infrared signature.
The low-visibility seal can be observed on a wide range of Belgian Army vehicles, including:
Piranha IIIC APC
Dingo 2
EBRC Jaguar (as rumoured on renders, it still has to be delivered)

Logistic, engineer, and support vehicles.
These markings became especially common during the late Cold War and post–Cold War periods, both in domestic service and during NATO deployments abroad.
Appearance & Characteristics

In-Game Implementation
In-game
- Type: Decal
- Visibility: Low-visibility / subdued
- Recommended vehicles: Ground vehicles (tanks, IFVs, wheeled vehicles, SPAA)
- Unlock method:
- Nation-related achievement (Belgium / BeNeLux)

This decal would pair extremely well with NATO camouflage schemes already present in-game.
