An aircraft beacon light (120, 120a, 120b) comprises a plurality of primary light sources (6) for emitting light into at least two spatial sectors (12-18), wherein the at least two spatial sectors (12-18) include a forward sector (12) and at least one of an aft sector (14), a starboard lateral sector (16), and a portside lateral sector (18); and a light transmissive cover (4), which covers the plurality of primary light sources (6). The plurality of primary light sources (6) are arranged and configured for providing an FAR-compliant aircraft beacon light output of the aircraft beacon light (120, 120a, 120b), in case of the light transmissive cover (4) being in a non-eroded state. The aircraft beacon light (120, 120a, 120b) further comprises at least one booster light source (20) for selectively emitting a booster light output into the forward sector (12). The at least one booster light source (20) is controllable independently of the plurality of primary light sources.
