An aircraft wheel and brake assembly includes a wheel, a brake configured to brake the wheel, and a measurement device configured to measure the speed of rotation of the wheel. The brake includes at least one friction member, an actuator support, and at least one brake actuator carried by the actuator support and configured to exert a braking force selectively on the friction member. The measurement device includes a target and a sensing component for producing a measurement signal representative of the speed of rotation of the target. The aircraft wheel and brake assembly is configured in such a manner that, when assembled, the target is constrained to rotate with the wheel and the sensing component is mounted on the actuator support. The target and the sensing component is configured in such a manner that the sensing component detects rotation of the target.
