This technical museum is the youngest and largest in Ukraine, was opened on September 30, 2003. At present its exposition of the aircraft, located on the territory of more than 20 hectares, displays about 60 planes and helicopters that were adopted in the Air Force of the USSR and later of the independent Ukraine, and also those that were engaged in the civil air fleet. All exhibits are grouped into special collections: the "corporate" ones exhibiting the aircraft created at definite design bureaux, historical, and topical. Of special interest is a unique, having no analogues in the world, "Backfire Collection" that includes all models of the strategic rocket plane Ty-22M, the heaviest battle plane of the Ukraine's Air Force, and its basic armament - the X- 22 cruise missiles capable to carry nuclear war-heads.
It is possible not only to view aircraft from the outside, but to get into the cockpit and the passanger cabin, and also to see a so-called "black box". Special services are available for the lovers of extreme and military tourism: out-of-town actions with parachute jumping, flying in the sporting aeroplanes, firing practice and military games.
