Abstract: A compressor stator includes an axial centerline axis and has a unitary annular outer case and a plurality of circumferentially spaced outer hooks extending radially inwardly therefrom. A circumferentially segmented inner case is disposed radially inwardly within the outer case and includes a plurality of arcuate inner case segments, each including an arcuate shroud and at least one inner hook extending radially outwardly therefrom, with respective ones of the outer and inner hooks being axially slidably joined to each other for radially supporting an inner surface of the shroud at a common radius.
