The museum has an exhibition hall where you can see equipment such as a survival kit, engine, data recorder, propeller, anti-submarine missiles, and sonobuoys. The museum also features VR rides . Photography is not allowed inside the aircraft.The entry fee is ₹70 per person for adults and ₹40 per person for children, which includes a free audio guide.
