Author's remark: A RSAF F-15C in Athens Flying Week 2021 wearing the special “90 years” and “vision 2030” markings for Saudi National Day. The day is to commemorate the renaming of the Kingdom of Nejd and Hejaz to the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, by a royal decree from King Abdul Aziz Ibn Saud in 1932. It was made a national holiday by King Abdullah in 2005.Since the last few years it has become a tradition for several Royal Saudi Air Force (RSAF) aircraft to receive special colours and markings to commemorate the occasion.
