Air Force Museum, Upper Shillong

Air Force Museum HQ EAC AF in Upper Shillong presents the Indian Air Force’s Eastern Air Command history through four galleries, including war and cultural displays on the 1965, 1971 and Kargil conflicts, aircraft and aviation equipment, ejection seats, engines, flags and insignia, photographs, models, gallantry awards, missiles and other weapons. Outdoor exhibits include Hunter, ISKRA trainer, DHC-4 Caribou, Mi-4 helicopter, a MiG-21 cockpit, jet engines and SA-2 systems; a flying simulator is also available. The operator currently lists museum hours of 09:00–17:00 daily and asks visitors to carry a debit or credit card for payment. The museum is inside the Headquarters Eastern Air Command campus near the main gate, so current opening, gate and identification requirements must be confirmed before travel. Accessibility information is limited and conflicting: the operator does not publish a detailed access statement, while the Government of India museum registry does not rate the site as wheelchair-friendly; contact the museum about mobility support and terrain.
