According to [fss]: Stripes: 6+2+1. Star

in imaginary square of sides 25% of flag height. Vertical axe of star
and hammer and sickle at 25% of flag length. The horizontal axe of the hammer and sickle
not given, but looks like centered at the upper red stripe. Also not given,
the distance between the hammer and sickle and the star.

I’d say that the circle enscribing the star touches the edge
of the imaginary square — at least it is so in the other
comparable construction sheets.

No hammer, sickle and star on the
reverse side.
Mark Sensen, 25 May 1997
Officially reverse looked like obverse without star and hammer-sickle.
But in fact I never saw these flags without star, hammer-sickle. Real flags
(all 15) usually were either with reverse analogous
to obverse (but with star and hammer-and-sickle near the hoist) or with
reverse = mirrored obverse.

and replaced
by the current one 4 June 1992.
