Although, in the schematic I proposed it cannot share fuel but in turboramjet propulsion it can. But we are not concerned about it here (dual velocity cruise missile)You suspicion it's probably correct. It'd become too big... Turbofan system can't share propulsion mechanism nor fuel with ramjet, so both will be seperate. See a schematic diagram of ramjet & turbofan,you'll get what I mean.
Why add turbofan anyway?.. Turbofan has only one advantage, low IR signature. So the stealthy CATS Hunter will benefit from it. These above stuff will get detected & need to be fast & maneuvering. Or atleast sea-skimming/terrain-higging.
