Intrepid Sea-Air-Space Museum

Docked at Pier 86 in the Hudson River at 46th Street, the decommissioned aircraft carrier U.S.S. Intrepid is a standing symbol of America's proud military history.

The 900 foot long behemoth was launched amidst World War II in 1942 carrying over 100 aircraft and 3,000 men into battle.

After serving in WWII, the Intrepid was modernized and saw action in both the Korean and Vietnam wars.

It's aircraft and onboard weapons shot down 650 enemy planes and destroyed 289 ships.

In 1976, the U.S.S. Intrepid was ordered to the scrap heap.

But a foundation was formed to save and restore the now obsolete ship and preserve the monument as a military museum devoted to our sea, air and space programs. It's a popular destination for many tourists.
Let's go Inside and onto the flight deck!
