The United States Army Armor and Cavalry Collection is a combat vehicle collection owned by the Armor School located at Fort Benning, Georgia. It is one of the largest collections of armored fighting vehicles in the world.^[1]

In 2011 the U.S. Army Armor and Cavalry Collection relocated with the Armor School from Fort Knox, Kentucky to Fort Benning, Georgia. With the move a majority of the collection that was at the Patton Museum moved with the Armor and Cavalry Collection.^[2]

As of 2024 the museum was not open to the public. The museum began an open house series in 2018 when it had 36 vehicles.^[3] As of 2023 it had 190 pieces of armored fighting vehicles and anti-tank weapons.^[4]
