Notes
ramjets on rotors
This was an updated version of the HH-120 Hornet. It was completly enclosed and generated a lot of interest.
Because of the Korean War this inexpensive helicopter never saw mass production. There were at one time possibilities of marketing this helicopter to the public for only $5,000 which would have made is available to a large number of people.
