Abstract
An infrared aircraft lighting system designed for use in connection with night vision goggles includes a ring structure containing infrared lights that is installed between an existing visible light beacon and the aircraft outer surface, without requiring modification of either the aircraft structure or the existing visible light beacon. A central opening in the ring is aligned with the opening in the aircraft that was created to receive the visible light beacon. A plurality of holes extending through the ring structure permit the mounting bolts passing through a flange on the beacon light to extend on into the aircraft, thus securing both the visible light beacon and the ring structure on the aircraft. A plurality of infrared lights are mounted on said ring structure in a circular pattern so as to be visible from above. A slot formed in the ring's lower surface accommodates the electrical wiring necessary to supply power to the infrared lights.
