Fighter World

Fighter World is an Australian not-for-profit aviation heritage centre at RAAF Base Williamtown, north of Newcastle, New South Wales.

It is part of RAAF Aviation and Heritage and is operated with the purpose of preserving the history of fighter operations of the RAAF.

Staff include paid employees, RAAF reservists and a team of approximately 50 volunteers, most of whom have previous RAAF experience.. Fighter World is located on Commonwealth land inside the outer fence of RAAF Base Williamtown, less than 300 m (980 ft) from the runway.

It initially consisted of a main administration building and large display hangar with observation deck. On 7 September 2000 a second display hangar was opened. A third hangar was constructed for use as a workshop and opened in mid-2021. The museum includes aircraft on display outside the hangars, as well as the RAAF base's old airfield surveillance radar (SURAD) head. A cafe is located on-site.
