SALKIT AT
Supplementary Airfield Lighting Kit
Overview
A trailer mounted, portable airfield lighting system containing NVG compatible portable edge lights. Which may be used independently or to expand the capability of the MOSKIT system.
ABOUT
In situations where the minimum runway specification provided by MOSKIT AT is not sufficient the SALKIT All Terrain contains the additional edge lighting needed to expand MOSKIT’s potential by allowing:
- Closer spacing of runway edge lights
- Extended runways
- The marking of taxiways and parking areas
SALKIT AT was designed specifically to meet a need identified by the US Marine Corps who used the system, together with MOSKIT AT, during Operations Enduring Freedom and Iraqi Freedom. The US Air Force used both systems in Afghanistan during Operation Enduring Freedom.
Our case studies section gives in depth examples of how the MOSKIT portable airfield lighting system is currently being used to support airfield operations around the world.
