That looks like an unpowered version - can't see any evidence of an
engine.
Being rocket powered, I think it just need a nozzle at the rear - which
wouldn't be apparent in a shot from this angle.
Here's a picture of a He112 fitted with the same engine:

I think teuton is trying to impress us with another one of his country's
"firsts" which, as was typical, never went into production.
