That is how I expected to find the V2 at Hendon (pictures shortly/eventually).

Yup, the main lobby in fact. That's where most of the big stuff is kept. They have lots of models, leaflets, small-arms and other bits and bobs in rooms at the back covering wars right up to the present day.
In regards to the big stuff, there's a Matilda, Sherman, T-34, Jagdpanther, Mark V WWI tank, a V1, V2, a replica of 'Little Boy', and, somewhat poignantly, a part of the World Trade Center.
I just went to their website to find a list of what's there, and it looks like they're going to be refurbishing the place soon, opening a new look in 2014. So it's going to be closed from Jan 2013 to July 2013, and I have no idea what they'll be doing in terms of whether some exhibits will be moved or others kept, ah, it looks like they're all going to Duxford for conservation and storage. So you might have to either act fast or leave it until after the refurb.
