An assembly (54) for an aircraft propulsion system (20) includes a nacelle inlet structure (34) which extends axially along and circumferentially around a centerline (28). The nacelle inlet structure (34) includes an inlet lip (62), an inner barrel (58), an outer barrel (60) and a plurality of structure segments (160). The inlet lip (62) forms a leading edge (86) of the nacelle inlet structure (34). The inner barrel (58) projects axially aft away from the inlet lip (62). The outer barrel (60) projects axially aft away from the inlet lip (62). The outer barrel (60) is radially outboard of and axially overlaps the inner barrel (58). Each of the structure segments (160) includes an exterior skin (162), a mount (164) and an electric heater (166) configured to heat the exterior skin (162). The exterior skin (162) forms a respective circumferential section of the inlet lip (62). The mount (164) is connected to the exterior skin (162). A fastener (190) extends radially through the mount (164) and attaches a respective one of the structure segments (160) to the inner barrel (58).
