This museum is located in the first floor of director Takashi Doi's home. Inside are several rooms of WWII Japanese radio and radar equipment, plus other related displays. The collection contains many rare and unique examples, not present at any other museum in the world. The majority of the collection is Japanese, but a few other relics and displays also represent American radio equipment for comparison.
Tunnel Discovery Radar Set
One of the most interesting artifacts is a radar set, and spare parts that were discovered in 2002, in the shed of a tea plantation at middle of the mountain in Shizuoka Prefecture. This mint condition artifact was one of two discovered. One was donated to the Yokokhama Radio Museum. The other set went to the Numazu Meiji Shiriyoukan (Numazu city museum) located in Shizuoka Prefecture.
I-401 Relics
The museum has several relics from the Japanese submarine I-401 that were taken by an American prior to the sub being sunk off Hawaii. Included is the gun site from the sub's deck gun, and a the gun site/bomb site from one of its Seiran aircraft.
