Hope this gives you an avenue to explore for an answer. Good luck.

I saw para wings in these colours being worn by a Pakistani police officer on his dark blue Jersey Heavy Wool at Tito Barracks, Sarajevo in 1999.
Other than the colours I don't know how similar those wings would be to the one shown. (He was smothered in badges and medal ribbons and buying more badges at a little non-runner vehicle used as a badge shop).
