I actually turned it up while reading up on my fav plane
they mentioned it. but the equipment list didnt mention
it in game.

however It occured to me then and again now
that the proper term is speed brake

its I think a small pop out flap on each wing
and its just a straight metal non moving extension.
and it basically creates a disruption of the slipstream
(assumably by vortex effect)
wich causes the slipstream to fall off the controls
in compression.

this was a simple highly effective solution
to the lightnings tendencies in a high speed dive.

speed brake manuevering flaps I dont know for sure
but I tell you it totally works I have turned with
some of the most agile aircraft in the game.
