What kind of engines can be added in wing tips in Eastern Express model of Bereznyak-Isayev BI-1?

Thanks!

I have the kit somewhere in my stash.  From what I recall, it has a pair of rotund little pods which I think are meant to represent the DM-4 ramjets fitted to one of the prototypes.  I'll see if I can dig it out, and I'll post pics of the kit parts.

As stated BI No.6 had a Merkulov DM-4 fitted to each wingtip, they were test fired in the CAHI (TsAGI if you prefer) T-101 windtunnel but not in flight.
