An aircraft having a vertical take-off and landing (“VTOL”) propulsion system aircraft, smaller than a standard manned aircraft and remotely or autonomously piloted. The aircraft comprises a symmetrical airfoil shape for the center body section that consists of ribs and spars maintaining an open area in the center. Situated within the open area of the center of the aircraft resides a duct system consisting of a ducted fan and five outlet vents. The main outlet vent functions as the exhaust exiting the aft portion of the aircraft, with the remaining four ducts used for the VTOL capabilities exiting the underside of the aircraft. The aircraft can have a range of wingspan, which can be scaled to satisfy needs and requirements, with a blended wing body that incorporates the inlet and duct system.
