Abstract
A thrust reverser system having an asymmetric vane assembly is provided. The provided thrust reverser system generates a desired vertical thrust component that at least partially offsets a potential nose-up pitch moment. The provided thrust reverser system employs a single row asymmetric vane geometry that reduces weight and material cost.
