Abstract
A thrust reverser for an aerial vehicle is coupled to an engine associated with the aerial vehicle. The thrust reverser includes a housing configured to receive an exhaust flow. The housing is movable relative to the aerial vehicle between at least a first, stowed position and a second, deployed position. The housing includes at least one inner flange that defines a first curvature. The thrust reverser includes a pair of doors coupled to the housing. The pair of doors is movable between at least a first position and a second position based on a movement of the housing. Each door of the pair of doors includes a leading edge and a trailing edge. The trailing edge is downstream from the leading edge in a direction of the exhaust flow through the housing, and the leading edge has a second curvature that is substantially the same as the first curvature.
