Western Air Command HQ at Subroto Park has two warbirds displayed in a unique fashion. There is a Mystere and a Gnat mounted on pylons depicting an era from the 1965 War. A T-59 tank from Longewala too finds its place in the display area. In 2003, A Hunter was installed on a pylon in the Subroto Park area. This aircraft was previously held with the IAF Museum.
