An aircraft ice protection system includes a frequency a frequency dependent susceptor coupled to a critical surface of an aircraft. A radio frequency (RF) energy source is configured to apply RF energy to the frequency dependent susceptor. The aircraft ice protection system is configured to selectively operate in a susceptor absorbing mode and a water absorbing mode. The aircraft ice protection system operates in the susceptor absorbing mode until a Faraday layer associated with ice formed on the critical surface reaches a target characteristic. When the target characteristic is met, the aircraft ice protection system initiates the water absorbing mode.
