Hi Kimber...I think that might be powered by a combined Turbine Jet engine and a Ram Jet engine 
...The French were very keen on Ram Jet developement in those days and their early ramjets like the Leduc 010 were difficult and dangerous to fly as they had to be carried aloft on a conventional aircraft and then launched at altitude...They only had the ramjet which worked fine at speed but would flame out below about 200+ knots so they were always gliders as they came back to land. Your aircraft was combining both types of propulsion so that it could get airborne on its own power then rush around as a ramjet and finally land with normal jet power :flying:

If you want one for FS9 or FSX:

And Peter is of course ;-) quite correct about the propulsion systems

A French attempt at being Russian, it would seem... :think:
