Philippine Air Force Aerospace Museum

A chance to actually touch the F-5A, marvel closely at UH-16 Albatross and Douglas C-47, or ride the UH-1H Iroquois is already an experience to behold.

Established in 1974, the Aerospace Museum is both an indoor and outdoor military museum where aviation and military history-lovers would definitely enjoy. Built to honor heroes and airmen of the Philippine Air Force, the museum displays Philippine military aviation history, aerospace science exhibits, artifacts and relics used during WWII, dioramas and miniature airplanes. There’s also an aircraft-themed outdoor park that features historic military aircrafts.

Aside from air force exhibitions, amenities in the museum include a mini-theater for small group film showing, and a function room for seminars, workshops, and social events.
