From a science and engineering point of view, I root for this.
From an environmental point of view, I hope this won't materialise for some time.

It can be nuclear powered, so you don't have CO2 emmisions /S
You just need to add heat to the air at the point where the diameter is the lowest.
The russians are maybe using this idea for one of their new cruise missles named Burevestnik, although for them the nuclear emmisions are likely a positive side effect.
