The ratio is 50:66. It is a celestial blue flag with a white inset border. In the centre of the flag is an upright white anchor with yellow bar, yellow ring and yellow rope crossed by a horizontal brownish stick with a red Phrygian cap stuck on its hoist end. The whole is superimposed by the sun of May.

The Minister of Navy ceased to exist in 1958. Since that year there is just a Minister of Defense for the Argentine Army, Navy and Air Force.
