It's CGI

Here's my reasoning alongside Frank's. With a propeller driven version of this you have air flow control surfaces, the propeller blades and the air vortices around them that influence air flow. A jet engine needs auxiliary control surfaces. Wings! This thing doesn't have enough surface area to be a lifting body.

I see more and more CGI generations like this. 2 days ago I saw a car show interview that never existed in reality at all. Totally generated by computer graphics. Moral of the story, we are in a tie where we have people perfectly willing to create video and text that has no relationship to reality in order to influence people. NOt sure if the influence is necessarily a good thing coming from people like this.
