They do have one of the X-15s at the Smithsonian Museum in Washington D.C., but, the really cool stuff is at the AIR&SPACE museum near Dulles airport.

I have been to the Air Force museum several times circa 1985 to just before they started building the new wing

It was a different place back then. The B70 was still outside/good pictures> not to many people were visiting.
So I was able to do my my own walk up (close enough to touch) inspections of the YF-12, and some of the other aircraft.

I never made it out to the AIR&SPACE Dulles facility yet. But I did tour Smithsonian AIR&SPACE on New Years . It was the best time, for hardly anyone was there for about 2 hours.

BTW, I successfully 'flew' the pterodactyl simulator at the museum first time up, LOLOL
