Some Rene Lorin ideas,from Aerophile.

From Aviation magazine 1952,

here is a two flying bomb designs for Mr. Lorin.

It seems that René Lorin's concepts were premature. In propulsion, he was a pioneer in ramjet (statoréacteur) design ... but carrier aircraft of the times were incapable of reaching speeds high enough for a ramjet to function.

This picture of the aerial torpedo is better quality at the height of what René Lorin was. His ideas and his inventiveness largely exceeded the ends nose of the French military Staff of his time with narrow visions was not very receptive to their theories. What became after the ramjet.
