Related templates
The flagicon template can be used to display the naval flag by itself, using the naval variant as a template parameter:
 * → 🇨🇳
 * → 🇯🇵
 * → 🇯🇵

Implementation notes
By default, this template shows the standard national flag for the selected country, following by a wikilink to " Navy". Both of these items can be changed by adding specific parameters to the appropriate country_data template (complete set found in ).

To use a different flag, such as the naval ensign for the nation, use:
 * image name of naval ensign

To use a different name for the wikilinked navy article, use:
 * article name
