Military Aircraft Simulator Experience

What Can I Expect

A trio of military simulators to choose from on this Military Aircraft Simulator experience near Mildenhall in Suffolk! We are offering 60 and 90-minute vouchers for weekday and anytime availability.

We have to start off by saying this sim centre is really quite something. Built, maintained and run by a passionate and dedicated family team, many of whom have worked in the Forces and airline industry, bringing years of experience.

This special voucher collates three of the team's military aircraft simulators. As pilot, you get to choose which of the sims you'd like to try. You have the choice of a Lynx helicopter, an F-35 fighter jet, or the classic Spitfire.

All three simulators have been built to replicate as near as possible the cockpits, including instrument functionality. Of course, some of the systems used by the military are classified, but in essence you're flying something very close to the real thing!

Your flight missions will vary according to the simulator you pick. In the helicopter it's all about flying high-speed, low-altitude, trying to be as precise as possible. The highlight of the F-35 B Lightning sim session is definitely landing on the aircraft carrier in the sea. And the Spitfire with those analogue controls? You can't help but love it.

The attention to detail and the level of care taken to replicate the sensations of flying in these military aircraft is second to none. If you like planes, you'll love these military aircraft simulator choice experiences!
