There were 5 Tritons built. N°01, the one in your photo as Klem points out, had a Jumo 004 jet, a nose intake and side louvres.  It was the SO-6000J (JuMo)

N°02, also a SO-6000J, was a static test frame only, not flown.

This JuMo version was so underpowered that it was abandoned.

N°03 F-WFKY, N°04 F-WFDH and N°05 F-WFKX all had RR Nene engines (SO-6000N), and the protruding side intakes.  At least N°04 had both nose and side intakes.


Separately, yes the Triton was bigger than the Gloster and Heinkel, being a two-seater.
