The invention is relative to a de-icing system (10) for critical surfaces (21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26) of aircraft (20), comprising:- at least one infrared laser generator (30), able to emit a laser beam (40) having a predetermined wavelengthλ,- a set of embedded networks (50) of optical fiber wires (60), each optical fiber wire (60) comprising an input (61) connected to the laser generator (30) and, at least, an output (62) configured to be able to spread the laser beam (40) from the laser generator (30),- wherein each output (62) of the optical fiber wire (60) is able to spread the laser beam (40) through one of a set of orifices (70) previously drilled onto a leading edge (21) of wings (22), and/or onto the leading edge (21) of horizontal tail plane (23), and/or onto the leading edge of the vertical tail plane (24) configured to be able to melt and remove ice or snow accretion(80)on critical surfaces (21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26) of the aircraft (20) during the flight.
