The several branches of the Armed Forces of the Islamic Republic of Iran are represented by flags. Within the Iranian military, various flags fly on various occasions, and on various ships, bases, camps, and military academies.
The Armed Forces of Iran are organized into three major forces: Army (or Artesh), IRGC (Sepah) and Police (NAJA). Each of these forces have their own military branches and every branch has its own flags.
If carried on parade by colour guards, they are placed beside the Flag of Iran, which serves as the national color.
