Victory Banner can refer to two things:
- The banner that was raised by Red Army soldiers on the Reichstag in Berlin, in 1945.
- The variation of the Soviet flag, without the hammer and sickle, to which president Boris Yeltsin gave a status similar to that of the national flag, on April 5, 1996. President Vladimir Putin also adopted the Victory Banner as the official flag of the Russian Army. This flag was named after the flag raised on the Reichstag.
