Anti-runway penetration bomb

AERIAL BOMB CLASS DESIGNED TO ATTACK AIRFIELD RUNWAYS BY PENETRATING THE RUNWAY SURFACE

Anti-runway bomb; Tarmac-shredding penetration bombs; Tarmac-shredding penetration bomb; Anti-runway

Anti-runway penetration bombs are systems involving bombs or bomblets designed to disrupt the surface of an airfield runway and make it unusable for flight operations.

Runway end identifier lights

AIRPORT RUNWAY LIGHTING SYSTEM TO AID RAPID IDENTIFICATION OF THE APPROACH END OF A RUNWAY

Runway End Indentification Lighting; REIL; Runway End Identification Lights; Runway End Identifier Lights

Runway end identifier lights (REIL) (ICAO identifies these as Runway Threshold Identification Lights) are installed at many airports to provide rapid and positive identification of the approach end of a particular runway. The system consists of a pair of synchronized flashing lights located laterally on each side of the runway threshold.

Runway edge lights

Runway edge lighting are used to outline the edges of runways during periods of darkness or restricted visibility conditions. These light systems are classified according to the intensity they are capable of producing:

Runway edge lights

Runway edge lighting are used to outline the edges of runways during periods of darkness or restricted visibility conditions. These light systems are classified according to the intensity they are capable of producing:

High intensity runway lights (HIRL)
Medium intensity runway lights (MIRL)
Low intensity runway lights (LIRL)

Many HIRL and MIRL systems have variable intensity controls, whereas the LIRLs normally have one intensity setting. At airports where there is a control tower, the tower will manage the lights to account for visibility and pilot preference, but some airports do not have control towers. These airports will have Pilot Controlled Lighting, or PCL, where pilots can adjust the lighting themselves by keying a microphone button a certain number of times.

The majority of runway edge lights are clear or white, but there are some exceptions to provide additional information to pilots in certain circumstances.

When an instrument runway lighting is designed, the last 600 metres (2,000 ft), or one-half of the runway length available (whichever is less), are bi-directional. They look white to the pilot approaching from the short end of the runway, but to a pilot approaching from the other end, who would be landing or taking off in that direction, they are yellow to indicate that the runway is nearing the end.
