While trolling the Internet for some other cutaway I came across this:

 

 It was identified as the Martin Scout and was called "vintage".  I looks to be a late-60s study and approximates in shape the AFFDL F-3K or F-4 lifting bodies. The cutaway presentation shows some curious details:  It is, apparently, unpowered.  It has a small payload bay, which can be opened to the outside.  What is that at the blunt end?  Some sort of detachable lifting body?  Check out that visual aid for the high-alpha landing attitude. Anyone have any ideas as to what it was supposed to "scout"?
