I thought that it looked like a modular design, and the article calls it a “module”, so I thought I’d check the DARPA site. According to the DARPA site, it will be a modular design. The wing/fans/engines/fuel/control module will be able to attach to several different “mission modules”, depending on the requirements of the mission. That design provides a lot of valuable flexibility. Impressive.
