Unbuilt Arsenal VG-90 projects

As most of these are left undrawn, as there aren't blueprints or profile drawings we are gathering them all in one post. The only one that apparently was drawn in a blueprint was the VG-93.

The Arsenal VG-91 was an intended single-seat fighter for the French Air Force and, apparently it was going to be powered by the French Atar C.101 engine and was expected that it would've achieved the speed of 953km/h. It was going to be also a little bit longer.
Arsenal VG-92 was just a regular VG-90 refitted with the newer Rolls-Royce Nene II engine. It was intended for Aeronaval service.
Arsenal VG-93 was a VG-90 powered also by the Rolls-Royce Nene II engine, and it would've featured ramjets placed on the wingtips. It was estimated that it would've achieved speeds of 1095Km/h.
Arsenal VG-94 was also a derivative of the VG-90, intended for the Navy and powered by a Rolls Royce Nene 104 delivering 3100Kgp of thrust and intended to achieve speeds of 1100km/h.
