Campaigners say MathsAlive!, an interactive exhibit aimed at children aged seven and up, promotes its presenter, arms manufacturer Raytheon. Several human rights groups have alleged its weapons are being used by Saudi-led forces against Yemeni citizens. Andrew Smith of Campaign Against Arms Trade says the RAF Museum "should not be providing [Raytheon] with a marketing platform to airbrush its long history of fuelling atrocities and arming dictatorships". The company and museum have defended their partnership, saying the exhibit is educational "regardless of ideology".
