Abstract: The invention relates to a rudder control assembly (2) for a missile (1), the rudder control assembly (2) comprising: a first actuator (20) connectable to a rudder (16), which first actuator (20) is configured to steer the rudder (16) when connected to the rudder (16); a coupling element (22) for connecting the first actuator (20) to the rudder (16); and a second actuator (24) for locking the rudder (16) in a fixed position, wherein the second actuator (24) comprises a locking element (26), which is configured to lock and unlock the rudder (16) and which locking element (26) also is configured to connect the first actuator (20) with the rudder (16) by means of the coupling element (22) when unlocking the rudder (16). The invention also relates to a missile (1), comprising a rudder control assembly (2). The invention also relates to a method, performed by a control device (100), for testing a first actuator (20) of a rudder control assembly (2) for a missile (1). The invention also relates to a computer program (P) and to a computer-readable medium.
