The tank park sits on a vast, slightly undulating, field gridded with a series of twin concrete pads (think big '=' signs) for the tanks. The natural light and setting makes for great photography. But outside is the best outdoor collection of AFVs I have seen.

You won't get much out of the place on a rainy day since almost all the tanks are outside. It's free, though I dropped $20 into the foyer donation box.

Inside the two story dark brick building is a single tiny Renault 35 tank and a superb collection of small arms - rifles, machine guns and a few mortars. The US Army Ordnance Museum building is genuinely small and anticlimactic. So all the information here is for the museum as it WAS before 2011: Sadly, as of 2012 or so, it's also been moved to Fort Lee, VA. It was about 25 minutes north east of Baltimore at the Aberdeen Proving Ground military base. The US Army Ordnance Museum at Aberdeen Proving Ground was one of the world's best tank museums - full of Russian tanks, German tanks, French tanks, British tanks,and even.
