    @Graingy actually that back is inspired of the exhaust port for the Auxiliary Power Unit (APU) like on jetliner aircrafts since the X-V-1 engine is more of that way inspired from commercial jetliners, just different wing design.

    @JonaCENA1609 I see. So it's like a really high-power CPAP.

    @Graingy basically but if you look through the x-ray, there's no engine in the main fuselage in the back, more like an inspiration design.

    @Graingy basically inspired by the commercial jetliners they have from the back rear under the tail you see at some international airports
