That one is pretty large, but the National Air Force Museum in Dayton, Ohio is the largest and oldest military aviation museum in the world.
They have 2 SR-71s, one of which is the prototype YF-12 interceptor[1] meant to engage in air-to-air combat.
They also have a number of presidental aircraft, including the one JFK took to Dallas in 1963[2].
Surprisingly, they also have the Memphis Belle[3].
Been there a dozen times at least and still find something I haven't seen before.
