An aircraft wing and propulsion system includes a leading-edge device positioned at the leading edge of an aircraft wing and one or more propulsors affixed to the main body of the aircraft wing. The leading-edge device includes a moveable slat affixed to the aircraft wing with an extension mechanism such that the moveable slat is translatable between a closed position abutting a main body of the aircraft wing and an open position extended from the main body of the aircraft wing to form a gap. An associated method of operating the same during takeoff and landing includes extending the moveable slat to expose the propulsors on the aircraft wing and operating the propulsors during take-off or landing of the aircraft to provide increased power and lift for the aircraft.
