STANAG 3316

STANAG 3316 airfield lighting

Makers and installers of airfield lighting fixtures and control equipment for military airfields, and the programmes that specify them.

STANAG 3316 is NATO's agreement on airfield lighting, covering AATMP-07. NATO has not released it publicly; this page describes it from a Czech defence standards index entry and from NATO publications that cite it.

NATO has not released this STANAG publicly. It is NATO UNCLASSIFIED, and organisations that need it obtain it through their national standardization authority.

What it is

STANAG 3316 is the NATO Standardization Agreement on airfield lighting, edition 11, promulgated in June 2018 under NATO's AVC, ATM-CNS AG, AES WG committee. It covers the publication AATMP-07. NATO has not released STANAG 3316 publicly, so this page describes it from a Czech defence standards index entry and from other NATO publications that cite it.

Where it is cited

The Czech defence standards index lists ČOS 174002, whose Czech title translates as airfield lighting, as the Czech implementation of STANAG 3316 edition 10, an earlier edition than the current edition 11. The index describes the standard as setting out general technical requirements for the light signals used at military land airfields, and states that it supplements ICAO regulation L 14, Volume 1, for the Czech Ministry of Defence. ČOS 174002 itself sits in the Czech controlled-distribution system and is available only on request through the Defence Standardization Register, so this page draws on the index's own description rather than the standard's text.

Two public NATO publications cite STANAG 3316 for specific technical points. AATMP-08 lists STANAG 3316 - Airfield Lighting among its related documents and states that "Power supply and control circuitry for the obstacle lights shall be in accordance with the current edition of STANAG 3316." AATMP-12, NATO's publication that establishes helipad and heliport marking and lighting standards for visual meteorological conditions, states that "When taxiway lights are installed at or near the helipad, the criteria indicated in STANAG 3316 shall be utilized."
