I was wondering how fighter jets control their ailerons, elevators, and rudders. At first I was wondering if they controlled them with servos and cables, but I cant find anything pointing towards that. How do fighter jets control all those flight controls? What kind of mechanism do they use? Actuator? Servo? Can someone please post a link or video that would help me understand all this. Thanks.
Ps: (I once saw a f22 raptor move up and down its elevators. It seemed like the elevators were connected directly to servos on the side of the aircraft that moved back and forth. Im very confused about of they move that)
Also, this isnt really on topic but what job deals with all this stuff. I would say aeronautical engineer but wouldnt there be a more specific job title. Thanks again
