A linear electromechanical actuator with a main screw-nut assembly driven by a main motion device and having a hollow screw with an abutting surface; an anti-jamming piston arranged coaxially within the screw and shiftable between an engaged position in which locking dogs interfere with the abutting surface and a disengaged position in which the piston is free to slide within the screw; and actuating elements configured to shift the piston from the engaged to the disengaged position upon electrical or mechanical failure of the actuator. The actuating elements include a key axially movable between the engaged and disengaged positions and having a locking section, configured to bias the locking dogs into interference with the abutting surface in the engaged position, and an unlocking section, configured to allow free sliding of the piston within the screw in the disengaged position. An anti-jamming device for operating a critical flight control surface.
