An aircraft system is provided that includes an aircraft fuselage, a first propulsor, a first drivetrain, a second propulsor, a second drivetrain and an intermittent combustion engine. The first propulsor is outside of the aircraft fuselage. The first propulsor includes a first propulsor rotor and a first vane array. The first drivetrain is coupled to the first propulsor rotor. The second propulsor is outside of the aircraft fuselage. The second propulsor includes a second propulsor rotor and a second vane array. The second drivetrain is coupled to the second propulsor rotor. The intermittent combustion engine is within the aircraft fuselage. The intermittent combustion engine is configured to drive rotation of the first propulsor rotor, independent of the second propulsor rotor, through the first drivetrain. The intermittent combustion engine is configured to drive rotation of the second propulsor rotor, independent of the first propulsor rotor, through the second drivetrain.
