XH-26 Jet Jeep was to meet a United States Army and Air Force (USAF) request for a collapsible and air-droppable observation helicopter. The Jet Jeep was powered by two 6.75-inch XPJ49 pulse jet engines mounted on the end of each rotor blade tip as tip jets. Five prototype Jet Jeeps were built and tested.

Looks pretty nice. I would prefer it in 1/35 though to go with other available jeeps/Army ground vehicles and figures.
