Japanese Aircraft Collection
The museum's collection of Japanese aircraft are the only remaining Japanese aircraft transported to the United Kingdom after World War II. Surrendered at Tebrau, Malaysia at the end of the war, the aircraft were sent via ship to to No 47 M.U. Sealand for crating for storage, this was February 1947. In November 1985 they were transferred to RAF Museum reserve collection at RAF St. Athan before being moved to RAF Cosford in June 1989.
