The Arkansas Inland Maritime Museum is a maritime museum located at 120 Riverfront Park Drive, North Little Rock, Arkansas which opened on May 15, 2005. Its primary exhibit is the USS Razorback (SS-394), a World War Two Balao-class submarine which later served in the Korean, Vietnam and Cold Wars. The submarine was later transitioned to the Turkish Navy before becoming a museum ship. It is arguably the longest-serving submarine still existing in the world, having been commissioned by the United States and Turkey for 53 years of active duty.

Hoga, a tug which survived and responded to the attack on Pearl Harbor was acquired by the museum on 28 November 2015.

The museum has recently begun to offer sleepovers on the submarine.
