An example of weight savings is the LED lighting package being supplied for Lockheed Martin’s F-16 fighter by Patriot Taxiway Industries. “We are furnishing the tail light and the red and green inlet lights,” says the company’s president, Steven Smits. “By substituting LED for incandescent units, there is about a 2-lb. savings per aircraft.”
Along with weight savings, Smits adds that LED technology renders considerable savings in power consumption, noting an LED landing light the company is providing to a customer as an incandescent replacement.
“The light being replaced uses in excess of 12 amps of power, while the LED light, delivering the same output, will use just 3 amps,” adds Bill Strozinsky, Patriot Taxiway Industries’ production supervisor.
Mayon Neal, UTC Aerospace Systems’ general manager for lighting systems, notes that there are three categories of aircraft exterior lights. One includes flood and spotlights for takeoff, landing, runway turn-off, taxi, logo illumination and wing and engine scan. In addition, there are navigation lights and flashing anti-collision lights. Previous lighting technologies, he points out, have included xenon flash tubes for anti-collision lights; halogen and incandescent bulbs for navigation lights; and for floodlights, high-intensity discharge (HID) lamps, sealed-beam and halogen types.
