One embodiment includes a pivot thrust reverser comprising a first tandem pivot door subassembly comprising an inner panel and outer panel connected. A second tandem pivot door subassembly is included comprising an inner panel and outer panel connected. Also included are a first actuator located on a first side of an attachment location to pivot the first tandem pivot door subassembly, a second actuator located on a second side of the attachment location to pivot the second tandem pivot door subassembly, and a third actuator located substantially radially opposite the attachment location to pivot both the first tandem pivot door subassembly and the second tandem pivot door subassembly. The first tandem pivot door is configured to be pivoted from stowed to deployed by the first actuator and the third actuator, and the second tandem pivot door is configured to be pivoted from stowed to deployed by the second actuator and the third actuator.
