Yes, the museum at Delft has closed and everything is moving to a big new national military museum at Soesterberg combining the old airforce museum and which opens at the end of 2014.

Rafal,

both vehicles listed above belong to the same musuem.
Original they both belonged to the Military museum, Delft.

However this museum merged with some other miitary musuem, forming: Stichting Nationaal Militair Museum, Soesterberg

At the former De Peel airbase is also a PRTL/Cheetah preserved as it is now the homebase of the army and airforce air defence units

BTW, the preserved YP-408 at Schaarsbergen is still there.

I don't think I will make it in 2015, my family's agenda contains Budapest and Copenhagen. But I would love to hear from you and will consider it for a future trip
