A barrier device is provided for an inlet cowl for an aircraft engine including an inner barrel circumferentially surrounding an opening in the inlet cowl formed along an axis of rotation of the aircraft engine, through which air passes to the aircraft engine, the inner barrel including a face sheet disposed on a radially inward side of the inner barrel relative to the axis. The barrier device includes a containment doubler of the inner barrel, disposed on a radially outward side of the inner barrel, and a blade fragment barrier including one or more strips disposed between the containment doubler and the face sheet, so as to extend circumferentially at least partially around the opening and to occupy a radial distance between the containment doubler and the face sheet.
