Journaling: Page 1 Friday March 3, 2017
We wanted to get out and do something today – but didn't want to spend a lot of money. We went to the Air Force Armament museum on the Eglin AF base and it was free. There was so much to see – inside and outside!
The inside is 2 levels with the upper level being a balcony around the perimeter overlooking the first floor. The first floor houses some planes and displays with an open area for events. There is a weapon room, 2 trainers, and a movie theater. The movie was 30 minutes long and informative although the sound quality was scratchy. The second floor takes the visitor through the history of military aviation and armament from WWI to Vietnam.
Journaling page 2 The Air Force Armament Museum, adjacent to Eglin Air Force Base, Florida, is the only facility in the U.S. dedicated to the display of Air Force armament. Founded in 1975, it was originally located in a converted gymnasium on the northeastern edge of the Eglin main base.
Visitors can view a variety of historical Air Force planes, from a World War II B-17 bomber to an F-4 Phantom II jet. A wide variety of bombs, missiles, and rockets are exhibited, including the newest air-to-air missile, the AMRAAM, and the GBU-28 bunker-buster developed for use during Operation Desert Storm. Other missiles include: the Paveway series, Falcons, the Tomahawk, Mace, Hound Dog, radar-controlled, laser-controlled and several guided by a TV camera in the nose. Also on display is the GBU-43 MOAB, Massive Ordnance Air Blast bomb, or by its nickname, "Mother of All Bombs", the world's largest conventional explosive weapon. A predecessor, the T12 38,600 lb. demolition bomb, is displayed outside, while a Fat Man casing is indoors.
A gun vault displays a variety of weapons ranging from a 1903 Springfield rifle to the GAU-8, which is capable of shooting 6,000 rounds per minute. Featured here is the Sikes Antique Pistol Collection, with over 180 handguns, including flintlocks, dueling pistols, Western six-shooters, Civil War pistols, and a wide variety of early military weaponry.
Thanks for spreading positivity!
