The Royal Australian Armoured Corps Memorial and Army Tank Museum is located at Puckapunyal, an Australian Army training facility and base 10 km west of Seymour, in central Victoria, south-eastern Australia. The base is the home of the Royal Australian Armoured Corps.
Collection
The museum features over 70 armoured fighting vehicles on outdoor and indoor display, and uniforms, weapons, medals, artefacts and memorabilia of the Royal Australian Armoured Corps and its predecessor cavalry units.
Unfortunately due to heightened security restrictions and the museum's location within an active army base, it is currently not open to the public.
