No, the union flag is the British flag.The very first American flag included a union flag in the upper hoist canton, along with the thirteen stripes, this flag was named the Grand Union Flag. (This flag is the same as the British East India company flag, pre 1801.)There can be some confusion around this topic. In common American English use, the term "the Union" refers to the Northern States (i.e. the states remaining in the United States) during the American Civil War. As such, any reference in that context to a "Union Flag" means the American Flag (as flow at the time). "Union Flag" was not some specific design of flag, but was the American Flag.Outside the context of the American Civil War, the term Union Flag refers to the design of the Union Jack flag, the current flag of the United Kingdom (i.e. Great Britain, or, formally, the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland).
The British Union. It is commonly referred to as the "Union Jack" but technically that name applies only when a flag of that design is flown from the jack staff at the bow of a ship. When flown on land it is called the Union Flag. When flown at sea you can be in trouble because only the Royal Navy may fly the Union Flag or Union Jack at sea. Private citizens are not allowed to do so; their yachts must fly the Red Ensign.
The United Kingdom flag is formed of the three separate crosses of England, Wales and Scotland. The flag has been the official flag since 1707. It is known as the "Union flag". It is also called the Union Jack, but this is only correct when it is flying on a ship.
