If you’ve been waiting to complete your Apache cockpit build to the next level, today is your day. We’re thrilled to announce the release of five brand‑new AH‑64 Apache panels, crafted with precision, accuracy, and the practical needs of DIY sim builders in mind. Whether you’re expanding an existing build or starting fresh, these panels bring you one step closer to a fully authentic AH‑64 experience at home.
Each panel is engineered using the same proven methods used across our Apache product line: layered Perspex construction, fibre‑laser engraving, crisp legends, and full backlight compatibility. They’re designed to look incredible, feel authentic, and integrate seamlessly with the rest of your cockpit.
Let’s take a closer look at what’s new.

2) AH‑64 Apache Wiper Control Panel

Small but visually iconic, the Wiper Control Panel adds one of those subtle touches that make your build feel real. This panel matches the real‑aircraft layout and is constructed for full backlight diffusion. Whether you’re building a front‑seat or dual‑seat cockpit, this piece adds that missing realism.

Rounding out the latest expansion is the Apache COMM Panel .A visually faithful, backlight‑ready replica designed to bring true radio‑stack authenticity to your AH‑64 build.
