An aircraft ice detection system (10; 100A; 100B; 100C) is configured to determine a condition of a cloud (12) and includes a radar transmitter (16; 108), a radar receiver (18; 110; 152), optics (20, 22; 102, 104) and a splitter (24; 134). The radar transmitter (16; 108) is configured to produce quasi-optical radiation. The optics (20, 22; 102, 104) are configured to direct the quasi-optical radiation from the radar transmitter (16; 108) to the cloud (12) and receive reflected quasi-optical radiation from the cloud (12). The radar receiver (18; 110; 152) is configured to receive the reflected quasi-optical radiation from the optics (20, 22; 02, 104) and the splitter (24; 134) is configured to direct the reflected quasi-optical radiation from the optics (20, 22; 102, 104) to the radar receiver (18; 110; 152).
