On a plane: Drag-inducing surfaces which can be deployed differentially for lateral control, or simultaneously for lift dumping to improve the effectiveness of landing brakes.

deflector aerodinámico


Explanation:
No se trata de un freno, sino de una pequeña superficie de control de flujo que sirve para hacer correcciones menores en envolventes lentas de flujo aerodinámico (aterrizaje, por ej.). Sin embargo, por aquí siempre usamos el anglicismo "spoiler". ¡Suerte!

disagree  Maria Fernanda Garstein: Ailerons es la traducción de alerones, pero no es lo mismo que Spoilers.

  -> más arriba estás de acuerdo con "aerofrenos o alerones" ¿? Además, el texto es claro y dice que los "spoilers" se usan para controlar los movimientos laterales del avión y para mejorar la eficiencia de los frenos en el aterrizaje...
