Default I need some help with these wings.

These were among a batch I got. They are the same design as the Saudi Badges, even to the green center circle, but the CoA in the middle is not Saudi. It looks similar to the Egyptian Eagle motif.

Attached is a Saudi one for comparison.

The emblem in the centre is that of Yemen: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yemen

Hope this helps
