Royal Thai Air Force Museum, Military museum in Don Mueang District, Bangkok, Thailand.
The Royal Thai Air Force Museum is a collection of military aircraft in Bangkok, displaying fighter planes, transport aircraft, and helicopters from different periods. The facility also presents equipment and machinery that were essential for flight operations.
The museum was founded in 1952 to preserve and document Thailand's aviation history. Over the decades, the collection grew through donations and acquisitions of aircraft that reflect the air force's development.
The museum shows how aviation developed in Thailand and what role it played in national defense over the past century. Visitors can observe how aircraft were used in daily operations and what aviation meant for the country's identity.
The museum is located near Don Mueang Airport and is open daily for visitors. You can explore the collection on foot across the grounds, where most aircraft are displayed outdoors.
