The dials are good but for the panel they have used scanned photos of a Fw190A-8 from a rather good reference article on Hyperscale. It looks out of place when the painted dails are mapped on top.

Note the excessive wear and tear that has been added to the panel.

If you compare some of the panel instruments you will see they are screen grabs from this article.

See this shot of the bomb fusing panel, looks familiar:

Only annoying thing is the 'Look, mum! I can fly without me hand at the stick and me ruddy feet at the pedals.'
