Mission-Ready Simulated Avionics for Around-the-Clock Operations Simtek - Mission-Ready Simulated Avionics In aerospace and defense training, there is no margin for failure. Simulators operate long hours. Students rotate continuously. Training centers often run around the clock. Hardware must endure constant interaction without sacrificing realism or performance. That is why Simtek designs and manufactures Mission-Ready Simulated Avionics  built specifically for operational t

Why Simtek’s 45+ Years of Experience Deliver High-Fidelity Simulated Avionics That Perform Simtek Simulated B-2 Panel In aerospace and defense simulation, performance is visible. Switches respond correctly. Displays behave as expected.Panels endure years of continuous use. Systems integrate without surprises. But what makes that performance possible is something customers don’t always see. Integrity. For over 45 years, Simtek has built high-fidelity simulated avionics on a fo

Why Simtek Has Been a Trusted Partner in High-Fidelity Simulated Avionics for Over 45 Years Simtek Simulated Oxygen Regulator Panel In aerospace and defense, pressure is constant. Programs move fast. Requirements evolve. Schedules tighten. Budgets get scrutinized. For more than 45 years, Simtek has delivered high-fidelity simulated avionics that meet the demands of the world’s most complex training environments. Our longevity isn’t accidental. It’s built on experience, techni

Simtek NVIS Light Plates When training systems demand realism, durability, and visual accuracy—there’s no room for “close enough.” At Simtek , we manufacture NVIS (Night Vision Imaging System) light plates  with the precision and process control required for mission-critical simulator environments. From tight visual uniformity to rigorous specification compliance, our approach is built around one thing: getting the details right, every time. Manufactured to NVIS Requirements—

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

When most people think of Simtek, they think high-fidelity simulated avionics —panels, displays, instruments, and controls that look, feel, and operate like the real OEM hardware. That reputation is earned. But it’s not the whole story. Beyond Avionics Starts With a Simple Question As training systems evolve, our customers are asking for more than cockpit avionics. They’re asking for complete, realistic training environments—equipment that supports real procedures, real workf

In flight simulation, hardware isn’t just hardware—it’s the difference between a trainer that stays online and one that constantly fights downtime. Whether you’re building a new device, upgrading a legacy simulator, or sustaining a fleet over decades, you need cockpit components that are: built for high-cycle training use consistent across devices supportable long after typical electronics go obsolete backed by a supplier who responds fast when training schedules are at risk

Euless, Texas — January 5, 2026 Simtek is proud to announce we have been awarded contracts to deliver Qty 7 shipsets  and Qty 11 shipsets  supporting multiple C-130J flight simulator cockpit configurations . This award expands Simtek’s role in delivering rugged, high-fidelity simulated avionics hardware built for demanding training environments. Supporting Multiple Cockpit Configurations The program scope includes a tailored mix of simulated control panels, cockpit displays,

When a simulator program is on the line, there are three hardware categories that can make—or break—training uptime: Instruments  (gauges, indicators, standby units, and specialty controls) Displays  (glass cockpit displays, ruggedized display solutions, and integrated visual interfaces) Panels  (control panels, pedestal panels, overhead panels, and mission-specific assemblies) At Simtek , these aren’t side offerings. They’re what we do—every day. We supply simulated flight s

Simtek Simulated Displays When you’re building or sustaining a flight training device, the display system is one of the first things instructors and pilots notice—and one of the fastest ways a simulator can go down if the supply chain fails. Whether it’s a commercial airliner trainer  or a military training device , you need display hardware that is: reliable under constant training cycles consistent across devices and fleets supportable long after “normal” electronics would
