Abstract
Systems and methods are provided for a thrust reverser system with a straight vane thrust reverser cascade. The thrust reverser system may also include a blocker door and a turning door. The blocker door may divert air flowing within a bypass flow path of the aircraft propulsor to flow through the thrust reverser cascade. The turning door may then deflect air flowing from the thrust reverser cascade to provide reverse thrust. The straight vane thrust reverser cascade may allow for increased reverse thrust and/or a smaller, more efficient, aircraft propulsor.
