Reverse transcription complex is a transitory structure where reverse transcription takes place. Initially, it is likely identical to the RNA-protein complex found inside the virion core. Upon maturation, it may shed some HIV proteins (such as MA or Vpr) and incorporate cellular proteins (such as INI1 or PML).
