A gas turbine engine (10) includes a core engine (16) including a compressor section (20) communicating air to a combustor section (22) where the air is mixed with fuel and ignited to generate a high-energy gas flow that is expanded through a turbine section (24). The turbine section (24) is coupled to drive the compressor section (20). A propulsor (18) aft of the core engine (16) is driven by the turbine section (24). An exhaust duct (42) routes exhaust gases around the propulsor (18). The exhaust duct (42) includes an inlet (46) forward of the propulsor (18), an outlet (40) aft of the turbine section (24) and a passageway between the inlet and the outlet.
