F-22, and F-35 Programs

We are currently able to offer the F35 and F-22 flight grip and throttles systems.

The F-22 and F-35 are the most complex HOTAS grip systems with the highest switch counts of the US fast jet fleet. They are the most difficult to build. We initially did not plan to build the F-22 set because there seemed to be low demand and there were several other vendors building these HOTAS units.

However, because the other vendors built out of plastic resin, there developed a need to replace the easily broken units with something stronger. We were commissioned to create metal grips, and replace the base mechanisms with force accurate hardware for a high fidelity simulation.

The F-35 HOTAS set soon followed for similar reasons. We were asked to custom build a set that would withstand centrifuge usage, with special fail-safe electronics. The pictures below are the result.

Please feel free to ask us about development of new products.
