Not really a LEGO only question, but inspired by set 7256 - Jedi Starfighter™ &
Vulture Droid™.
Ok, can someone explain to me the new “id’s”?
On the Jedi Fighter, and also seen painted on the sides of the Clones’ Star
Destroyers, is a round tan disk with Dark Red Split Circle Pattern.

And on the Droid ships we see a triangle/hexagon pattern.

We still have the Eight-Point Star Pattern on Republic ships

which of course becomes the Imperial Six-Point Star Pattern by the time of SW
IV. http://ldraw.org/library/official/images/71/3x/4150ps5.png
Ok, so what does the split circle pattern represent? The Jedi Council? Seems to
me that someone in the LucasArts design & the (HAH!) “continuity” departments
made a goof - the split circle to me would seem more appropriate for the
Seperatists while the triangles would seem more appropriate for the Clone
(Republic) forces (they’re similar to the Imperial pattern, especially when
grouped in a hexagon).
