Overview
The Arizona Aerospace Foundation (AAF) acquired 77 acres (31 ha) to the east of the affiliated Pima Air & Space Museum and broke ground for the construction of the Tucson Military Vehicle Museum on Veterans Day, November 11, 2023. A large portion of the new museum's collection, 21 beautifully restored U.S. and British WWII vehicles, comes from the personal collection of the late Count Ferdinand von Galen, former AAF Chairman of the Board. It was donated by his family in memoriam, as was his wish. The National Museums of the U.S. Marine Corps, U.S. Army, and others have loaned the Foundation vehicles for display making for an inclusive collection of modern, vintage, domestic, and international examples. The U.S. General Services Administration has also been beneficial with assistance in procuring vehicles.[1]
