On display outdoors is this once pristine S-2G Tracker. Sadly it's really looking rough now exposed to the salty environment.

Looking very worse for wear is this ex-RAAF DHC-4A Caribou A4-231. On display at the Vietnam Veterans Museum, It is in dire need of some restoration.

This Canberra was built by English Electric and diverted to the RAAF from RAF an contract (serial WD939). Delivered to RAAF on 01 August 1951, it was the first Canberra to arrive in Australia (and in fact the first jet to fly UK to Australia), setting an unofficial speed record in the process. The aircraft spent most of its life with 82 Wing and the bomber OCU before being retired in 1973. It was put on display at the Central Ammunition Store at Kingswood, NSW until 2004. Acquired by the Vietnam Veterans Museum, it was initially kept dismantled in outside storage.

This was one of the replacement Trackers acquired by the RAN after the disastrous 1976 Nowra hangar fire. It is ex-USN Bu 153567 and retained that as the basis of its RAN serial. The aircraft was withdrawn from use on 12 August 1984 and sold. It was acquired as a training aid by Melbourne's Kangan TAFE in February 1994. In November 2013 it was acquired by the Vietnam Veterans Museum at Phillip Island, Vic.
