Seems to continue the Teutonic theme; perhaps a Jumo 004 in an Arado 234?

Nope, this may seem perverse, but how about JT8D in a Boeing 737?

Evening Kitbag.

I've read the design was based on a proven (German) configuration.

It's Russian.

OK, not Yak, so how about the confusingly designated Su-11, not the familiar Fishpot but a twin engined experimental from mid-40's?

That long fairing at the base of the fin and two airbrakes below the fuselage look familiar. Looks like my challenges earlier stablemate; SAAB J35 Draken?
