That is going to highly depend on the power output of that reactor, but
I highly doubt you'll need reactors in each nacelle.
The size and weight of the electric motor will help offset the weight of reactor if that is an issue.
The biggest boon you'll get out of it is the plane will be deathly quiet, so quiet you won't even hear it during taxiing much less in the air
Aerial recon is going to be very easy with the only way people finding out your around is they happen to spot you, but not ever seeing such things before they may not understand what they see.

The Green 172 -Cessna 172 with electric motor- has been around for a few years.
The motor life is estimated at 30,000 hours and has only 2 moving parts.
That would be an unholy massive advantage to the MP.
There are many types of ultra-lites running on electric motors for those that don't want full sized aircraft.

The thing that people might have an issue with is if you have a reactor powered aircraft, especially with autonav your range will be crew dependent only.
