In aerospace and defense, “good communication” isn’t a soft skill—it’s a performance requirement. When a simulator program misses the mark, the root cause is often simple: the supplier and customer weren’t aligned on what success  actually looks like. At Simtek, we’ve learned that the best way to deliver high-quality simulated avionics isn’t to start with hardware. It’s to start with understanding the customer’s needs —clearly, completely, and early. “Need” Isn’t Just a Part

Simtek Simulated MCDU - 737 In simulated avionics, performance isn’t proven when a unit powers on—it’s proven after repeated use, long hours, and real-world handling. That’s why strong product testing isn’t optional. It’s how you protect training uptime, reduce maintenance surprises, and ensure every delivered unit behaves the way it should. At Simtek, we believe the best products are the ones that keep working—consistently—after the stresses of production, shipping, installa

Simtek Simulated avionics - Train Like It's Real In training and test environments, accuracy isn’t a luxury—it’s the entire point. Whether you’re preparing pilots for real-world scenarios, validating procedures, or building confidence in complex systems, the simulator has one job: reflect reality so well that the skills transfer cleanly to the aircraft. That’s where high-fidelity simulation  changes the game. When the details are right—behavior, feel, response, timing, and..

In training, the mission is never simple. Requirements change. Platforms evolve. Threats adapt. Schedules tighten. Budgets don’t magically expand. That’s why our mindset at Simtek is straightforward: Here, nothing is impossible. Not because we ignore constraints—but because we build high-fidelity solutions within  them. Built for Change. Designed for Reality. Training equipment isn’t a “one size fits all” product. It’s a constantly moving target shaped by: New tactics and mis

Simtek KY-100 M - From Kickoff to Delivery. Great simulated avionics don’t happen by accident—they happen when everyone stays aligned from day one. At Simtek, we treat customer communication as part of the product. The clearer the alignment, the smoother the build, the faster the integration, and the fewer surprises late in the program. That’s why we lean on a structured communication rhythm built around key milestones like: TKO (Technical Kickoff) , PDR (Preliminary Design R

When a prime contractor is building, upgrading, or sustaining an Airbus A320 full-flight simulator , the “avionics” inside that cockpit aren’t just hardware—they’re training-critical systems that must be durable, consistent, supportable, and integration-ready  for the long haul. At Simtek , we’ve become a trusted partner for primes who need A320 simulator avionics that can withstand intense training cycles , stay stable across fleets, and remain supportable even when legacy c

When you’re buying simulated avionics and cockpit hardware, you’re not just purchasing a part—you’re trusting a supplier to deliver something that will be installed, integrated, and used repeatedly in a training environment where uptime matters. That’s why Simtek welcomes customers to visit our facility for source inspections of final products . We see it as a smart, proactive step that builds confidence, reduces risk, and helps programs stay on schedule. Why On-Site Source I

Southwest Airlines - 737 When a prime contractor is building or upgrading a 737 full-flight simulator , the avionics inside the cockpit aren’t just “parts.” They’re training-critical components that must survive relentless use, stay consistent across devices, and be supportable for years—often decades. At Simtek , we’ve earned a reputation as the team primes call when they need 737 simulator avionics that hold up in the real world of flight training —where switches get cycled
