The new Aichi Museum of Flight (https://aichi-mof.com/) recently opened to the south of the terminal. It is home to various historic aircraft, including a Mitsubishi Mu300 Diamond business jet, helicopters, and a NAMC YS-11.
This museum is worth visiting as it has a viewing area on top which is great for spotting and photographing aircraft on the runway and taxiway. The military part is not visible.
