Everything that I've read on this thing says that the pilot was supposed to bail out after puting it into a dive aimed at the selected target. Needless to say, all but a few fanatics were "hip" to the idea. Thus, I'd consider it a stupid weapon. Just imagine trying to bail out of this thing with a pulse jet behind your head while in a steep dive.
