In the country's first underwater military museum, tanks, a helicopter, and an armored vehicle are just some items that divers can swim around and see resting on the seabed near the Jordanian city of Aqaba. The vehicles, imitating a battle formation, have been stationed at a coral reef in the Red Sea. Inaugurated in 2019, the museum was created with the hope that the underwater structures will enhance the environment for marine life, encouraging more diving enthusiasts. The museum also hopes to relieve the pressure on natural reefs by drawing visitors away from those sites.
