A thrust reverser for a fan jet engine having a splitter in the fan duct in a plane with the fixed cascades is designed with blocker doors positioned to block flow between the splitter and the outer wall when in the deployed position. The splitter and supports are positioned to simultaneously uncover the cascades and block flow in the remaining portion of the duct. This design contemplates elimination of the blocker door drag links that typically extends into the duct passageway.

A thrust reverser for a fan jet engine supported in a nacelle of an aircraft having an annular passageway for conducting flow discharging from the fan, splitter means in said passageway cooperating with the walls of said annular passageway cooperating with the walls of said annular passageway for defining coaxial passages for dividing said flow into two coannular streams, a cascade coaxially disposed relative to said splitter, said nacelle having a slidable annular structure nesting said cascade and moveable to expose it to said passageway for reversing the flow of fan discharge air into ambient for thrust reversal, means attaching said splitter to said annular structure for moving said splitter in the same direction as said annular structure, said splitter having one end contoured to bear against the inner wall of said annular passageway in the deployed position for blocking the flow of the inner coannular stream of said coannular streams and blocker door means moveable with said slideable annular structure to a flow blocking position for blocking the flow of the outer of said coannular streams whereby the flow discharging from said fan is diverted to flow through said cascade.
