An exhaust nozzle includes an exhaust duct with an outlet and a row of radial apertures upstream therefrom. A radial frame surrounds the duct upstream from the apertures. A row of flaps are hinged to the frame to selectively cover and uncover the apertures for controlling exhaust flow discharged therethrough. An arcuate unison bar surrounds the duct adjacent to the frame and includes circumferentially spaced apart cam followers engaging corresponding cams affixed to the flaps. An actuator is joined to the bar for selective rotation thereof between opposite first and second directions to pivot open and closed the flaps atop the apertures.
