Default Set of Bullion Wings

From what I can tell these wings are for an Air Observation Post Pilot.

I believe them to be Royal Artillery but I would really like someone to confirm this or set me straight if they are not.

If not, then whose?

Thank you

I have not seen this design used by the Royal Regiment of Artillery.

The new TUAS pilots badge is similar but does not have the wreath.

It was one of a set of three badges. The other 2 were definitely British. This was reported by be so too. Looking at what references I could find online, Royal Artillery was the best choice, the giveaway being the RA "bomb" in the middle.

Other badges though had UBIQUE under the bomb.

The wreath is a mystery though

Any help would be appreciated.

Canadian? I suggest this as their ATO badges were similar to the British but with a wreath.
