WHAT DOES DECELERON MEAN IN ENGLISH?

deceleron

Deceleron

A deceleron, or split aileron, was developed in the late 1940s by Northrop originally for use on the F-89 Scorpion fighter aircraft. It is a two-part aileron that can be deflected as a unit to provide roll control, or split open to act as an air brake. Decelerons are also used on the Fairchild Republic A-10 Thunderbolt II, the A-6 Intruder and the Northrop B-2 Spirit flying wing. In differential use they impart yaw moment, potentially obviating the rudder and vertical stabilizer control surface, although requiring active flight control.

Definition of deceleron in the English dictionary

The definition of deceleron in the dictionary is a type of aileron, or attachment to the wing of a fixed-wing aircraft that enables the aircraft to have a degree of control when it goes into a roll, invented in the late 1940s.
