A thrust reverser of a turbofan pod is provided that includes movable cowlings that retract relative to stationary front structure to reveal stationary or movable thrust reverser cascades, as well as a secondary variable nozzle section connected to the movable cowlings by guiding means enabling movement controlled by actuators engaged with the front structure to apply an axial thrust. The actuators are directly connected to the secondary nozzle, and in that the thrust reverser comprises latches connected to the movable cowlings, having two positions providing, alternately, latching onto the front structure or latching onto the control of the secondary nozzle.
