The C-130 Hercules  is a true tactical workhorse—moving people, equipment, and capability wherever the mission requires. At Simtek Inc. , we’re proud to support that mission by delivering high-fidelity simulated avionics  purpose-built for C-130 training environments. From initial qualification to advanced mission rehearsal, our goal is simple: give aircrews a simulator cockpit that looks, feels, and operates like the real aircraft. Cockpit Hardware Engineered for Form, Fit,

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..

Simtek F-16 - Mixed Reality When “good enough” breaks, training stops. Mixed reality (MR) is changing how aircrews train. Instead of relying solely on full-motion devices or purely virtual cockpits, MR platforms blend real tactile hardware with immersive digital environments. Done right, MR lets crews build muscle memory, execute true-to-life procedures, and repeat complex scenarios—faster, safer, and at a lower lifecycle cost than traditional training paths. That “done right

At Simtek , we build high-fidelity simulated avionics that scale from frontline fighters to everyday general aviation trainers. Our mission is clear: to provide the most realistic training tools available. From F-35 mission trainers to Cessna primary flight schools, our hardware is designed so your simulator looks, feels, and operates like the real cockpit . Whether you’re supporting advanced military training or foundational pilot programs, Simtek helps you deliver a true

Making the BUFF Cockpit Feel Real Few aircraft have a legacy like the B-52 . As a long-range, multi-role platform serving decade after decade, the BUFF remains a critical asset for global operations. At Simtek Inc. , we’re proud to support that mission by delivering high-fidelity simulated avionics  tailored specifically for B-52 training environments. From the flight deck of the legendary B-52 to the training center, Simtek’s high-fidelity simulated avionics make the cockpit

At Simtek , we manufacture high-fidelity simulated avionics with zero compromise . In the world of professional flight training, “close enough” simply isn’t good enough. Pilots, crews, and customers demand simulators that look, feel, and operate like the real aircraft—and that’s exactly what our hardware is built to deliver. Built for Form, Fit, and Function From control panels and displays  to complex instruments , every Simtek component is engineered for: Form  – Correct ph

In commercial aviation, training quality, uptime, and cost control  all have to work together. At Simtek Inc. , we support that balance by delivering high-fidelity simulated avionics for commercial flight training —built to make your simulator feel like the real aircraft. Our simulated control panels, displays, and instruments  are engineered for form, fit, and function , helping airlines, OEMs, and training centers create cockpit environments that pilots recognize instantly.

In the training world, when a simulator goes down, it might as well be an AOG event . Instructors, students, crews, and schedules are all impacted until that device is back online. At Simtek, we take simulator uptime seriously. That’s why we stock critical components  specifically to support AOG-style simulator repairs —so when something fails, you’re not waiting months for a replacement. Treating Simulator Downtime Like AOG An aircraft-on-ground (AOG) situation demands fast

When your simulator is down, training stops —and so does your schedule, your throughput, and your revenue. Long lead times, slow responses, and vague ETAs can turn a minor issue into a major problem. That’s why at Simtek , we put a huge emphasis on one thing:👉 Keeping your simulator up and running. Does your vendor prioritize your simulator's uptime? For us, the answer is yes —backed by a dedicated Service Department  focused on quick, high-quality repairs. A Dedicated Servi

At Simtek , we don’t just react to where training is today—we build for where it’s going next . Simtek innovates today for tomorrow’s simulated avionics platforms. As aircraft evolve, missions become more complex, and training demands increase, simulators need hardware that can keep up. That’s why we’re constantly pushing the boundaries of high-fidelity simulated avionics  for both military  and commercial  platforms. From Next-Gen Fighters to Commercial Trainers Whether you’

High-fidelity simulated avionics don’t just look  real—they have to communicate, respond, and integrate  with the host sytem. That’s where Simtek’s Electrical Engineering team  comes in. Using a combination of proven interface solutions  and customer-specific design, our engineers build the electrical backbone  that makes each panel, display, and instrument behave exactly as your system requires. If your training device needs rock-solid I/O, clean integration, and dependable

Behind every high-fidelity panel, display, and instrument that leaves Simtek  is a mechanical engineering team obsessed with details. From overall cockpit layout down to the depth of a countersink or the feel of a switch guard, our engineers use SolidWorks 3D modeling  to design simulated avionics that are tailored exactly to the customer’s specifications . If you need hardware that matches your aircraft and your simulator—not just “something close”—this is where it starts. M

Wiring a full cockpit simulator can get expensive—fast. Multiple power lines, signal cables, distribution blocks, and harnesses can turn even a clean design into a wiring jungle. That’s why Simtek  developed its own Power over Ethernet (PoE) simulated avionics solution . By combining power and data over a single Ethernet cable , we help customers: Reduce wiring complexity Lower installation and material costs Simplify maintenance and troubleshooting Build more modular, scalab
