Bensen X-25A Gyrocopter - USAF Museum 04-18-2017

Title can't be empty.

This was developed during the Vietnam War as an alternative to an escape seat. The crew would eject adn then have limited fly-away capability. While pilots were easily trained for this craft, operational questions and the end of the Vietnam War resulted in it never being deployed.
