The National Museum of Military Vehicles is a military history museum in Dubois, Wyoming.[3][2]

Established in 2020, the 140,000-square-foot (13,000 m2) museum was founded by Dan and Cynthia Starks and built between May 2017 and August 2020.[4] More than 500 military vehicles and a significant firearms collection are on display at the museum along with other artifacts.[4] Starks, a former lawyer and medical industry CEO, funded the $100 million museum.[3]

Items on display include hardware ranging from the Spanish American War up until the Global War on Terror.[5] The museum contains four main galleries and an outdoor "Wall of Reflection".[1]
