The experiences feature four objects from the Memorial:

• Mark IV tank: explore Grit, a tank from the First World War.
• Bushmaster: examine an Australian-built, all-wheel-drive Protected Mobility Vehicle (PMV). Designed and first produced in Bendigo, Victoria, in 1998 by Thales Australia (formerly ADI Limited), the Bushmaster is considered one of the most successful military vehicles in operation today.
• Adelaide Class FFG: explore a Royal Australian Navy Adelaide class frigate and look inside and around HMAS Sydney IV. The Adelaide class FFG is considered by many to be one of the most capable warships in the Navy’s history.
• Hudson Bomber: explore the Memorial’s Hudson bomber A16-105, one of 52 Mark IV A Model Hudsons used by the RAAF during the Second World War.
