In various embodiments, a cascade array may comprise an actuator, a first cascade having a first integral flange, and a second cascade having a second integral flange, wherein the first cascade and the second cascade are operatively coupled to one another via the first integral flange and the second integral flange to form a cascade assembly, and the actuator is disposed between the first cascade and the second cascade.

Radially connected cascade grids

A nacelle inlet is provided for an aircraft propulsion system. This nacelle inlet includes an outer barrel, a bulkhead and a plurality of supports. The outer barrel extends around an axis and along the axis to an aft end. The bulkhead is within and connected to the outer barrel. An aft portion of the outer barrel projects axially aftward from the bulkhead to the aft end. The supports are disposed around the axis and next to the bulkhead. The supports are configured to support the aft portion of the outer barrel.

Nacelle inlet with extended outer barrel

In various embodiments, a thrust reverser system may comprise a first cascade, a second cascade, an actuator, and a structural connecting member. The actuator may be radially disposed between the first cascade and the second cascade. The structural connecting member may be adjacent the actuator. The structural connecting member may be configured to structurally join the first cascade and the second cascade.
