Birthplace, home and future of aerospace 'Wright-Patt'
is one of the largest, most diverse and organizationally
complex Air Force installations. Past, present
and future are inextricably linked here, from
the pioneering flights of the Wright brothers
to the development of today's most advanced aircraft
and aerial systems. Missions for the base's units
vary from acquisition and logistics management,
to research and development, advanced education,
flight operations, and a vast array of other activities.
The National Museum of the United States Air Force galleries present military aviation history, boasting more than 400 aerospace vehicles -- many rare and one-of-a-kind -- along with thousands of historical items and powerful sensory exhibits that bring history to life and connect the Wright brothers' legacy with today's stealth and precision technology. We invite you to take an online glimpse of our galleries. Click on a gallery name to see exhibits, including aircraft, engines, equipment and weapons of the USAF.
