A number of musea have cut-open tanks to allow people to see inside them. In some cases, like Centurion, this is uncontroversial. In the case of WW2 German AFVs, some strong responses can be elicited. In the US context, they were cut open for use as training aids, otherwise, there were just going to be scrapped (Just another enemy tank at the time, after all). However, as training aids or educational pieces, they arguably are far better for the learner to understand a 'tank' as opposed to looking at the exterior, inside small openings if accessible, or simply looking at wargame stats.
