I doubt they have any additional power plant or a fusor. They’re just injecting boronated water into the proton exhaust, and presumably getting enough fusion reactions to be useful.
“The fusion process was first devised during a R&D program for the US Air Force’s AFWERX (Air Force Work Project) initiative, where boronated water was introduced into the pulsed plasma thruster’s exhaust plume. This created alpha particles and gamma rays, clear indications of nuclear fusion.”
It sounds fairly crude, but if it works it works.
