It's the LeDuc, the 02 version, I think the original had the pit up on top of the ramjet.

That is because the pit design was stolen from the Germans after WWII...

LeDuc was a pre-war design.

Not the cockpit... The nose maybe (doubt it though as the plexiglass technology didnt exist prewar), but the layout of the pit was taken from German jets
