Abstract: A ground illumination aircraft light unit includes a mounting portion, which is configured for mounting the light unit to an aircraft; a transparent cover, which is mounted to the mounting portion and in combination with the mounting portion defines an interior space of the light unit; and at least one light source, which is arranged within the interior space of the light unit and which is configured for emitting light for illuminating an airfield in the vicinity of the aircraft. The light unit is configured to emit predominantly p-polarized light in a predefined spatial sector; and to emit non-polarized light in an area outside said predefined spatial sector.
