Rolls Royce 3rd Generation Lift Jet Transport

[Barrington Bond]

From Journal Of The Royal Aeornautical Society August 1965.

Not sure if this is a proper project or not as it says no more than the title in an article about VTOL.

The fuselage and VTOL lift pods remind me of those of the unbuilt HS.681 transport, but this design has two engines and the nacelles containing the rotable lift jets don't extend to the training edge of the wing. Anyone else have an idea?
