Which of the Countries has AK 45 on its Flag
The flag is based on the flag of the Mozambican Liberation Front (FRELIMO), the leading political party in Mozambique.
The FRELIMO flag, used for a brief period after the country gained its independence from Portugal, looks like the current flag but lacking the emblem, with green, black, and yellow horizontal stripes separated by white fimbriations and a red triangle in the hoist.
Mozambique flag
On independence the colors were rearranged to form the national flag, in diagonals emanating from the upper hoist. Over this was a white cogwheel containing the hoe, rifle, book, and star that appear on the present flag. The flag was altered in 1983; the colors were arranged in horizontal stripes, and the star of Marxism was made larger.
The flag of Mozambique was adopted on May 1, 1983. It includes the image of an AK-47 with a bayonet attached to the barrel, and is one of only two national flags of UN member states to feature a firearm (the other being Guatemala).

The Green stands for the riches of the land, the white fimbriations signify peace, the black represents the African continent, the yellow symbolizes the country’s minerals, and red represents the struggle for independence.
