A propulsion system for a vehicle includes a primary airfoil coupled to the vehicle, and a first augmenting airfoil coupled to the vehicle and positioned downstream of fluid flowing over the primary airfoil. The first augmenting airfoil includes a first output structure and at least one first conduit coupled to the first output structure. The at least one first conduit is configured to introduce to the first output structure a primary fluid produced by the vehicle. The first output structure includes a first terminal end configured to provide egress for the introduced primary fluid toward the primary airfoil and out of the first augmenting airfoil. The propulsion system further includes a secondary airfoil located directly downstream of the first augmenting airfoil such that the fluid flowing over the primary airfoil and the primary fluid from the first augmenting airfoil flows over the secondary airfoil.
