Which system provides anti-icing for windshields and other critical surfaces?

• A. Landing Gear System
• B. Fuel System
• C. Electrical System
• D. Ice Protection System

Answer: (D)

Anti-icing of windshields and other critical surfaces is handled by a system specifically designed to prevent ice buildup on those areas. The Ice Protection System is built to keep windshields clear and protect key surfaces from icing, using methods like electrical heating in the windshield and other anti-icing techniques on leading edges and sensitive components. That focused capability is why it’s the appropriate choice. The other systems manage different airplane functions (landing gear, fuel delivery, or general electrical power) and do not provide the dedicated, surface-wide ice protection needed for windshields and critical surfaces.
