General propulsion scheme using these 2 devices is proposed; in spite of being in sense "nuclear electric" system, accelerations well in excess of 1 g seem possible; details of specific system including estimates of its size, weight and performance; it appears that it might compete very well with other high thrust systems either chemical or nuclear for boosting vehicles from ground into satellite orbit and beyond.
