The Naval Aviation Museum is a military aviation museum located in Bogmalo, 6 kilometres (3.7 mi) from Vasco da Gama, Goa, India focused on the history of the Indian Naval Air Arm. The museum is divided into two main parts, an outdoor exhibit and a two-storey indoor gallery.

History[]

The museum was founded on 12 October 1998 with a collection of 6 aircraft.[1]

Exhibits[]

The indoor gallery features rooms focused on specific topics. These include naval armament – such as bombs, torpedoes, autocannons, and sensors – and the progression of uniforms of the Indian air and naval forces. Also on display are large models of the INS Vikrant[2] and INS Viraat.[3] A number of aircraft engines are on display outside.[4]
