Thanks Martin to bring this up ... would have been one of my next questions ... meaning I can't answer but I am also curious.

In my former projects with scale jets and helicopters, I could always rely on one source but this is no longer attainable. That's why I always made photos that are easily adjustable to the scale ... with proportional measures like in the photo shown below.

Cheers, Andre

Easy - make them yourself !
All you need is a colour printer, decal paper (which comes either white or clear) and a suitable program (I use Microsoft PowerPoint).
You’ll probably find many of the badges you need on the internet - just copy into your program and resize.
There’s plenty of guidance on this on the internet.
It’s fun, and gives you a greater sense of ownership and achievement.

Good luck !

I always use stencils, you can pick up the equipment very reasonable and once you have it you can do whatever you like for all the symbols .
