Pulsejets are sort of an Urban legend. They are super easy to manufacture from cheap materials, runs on any fuel, everybody wants one, still no one seen or uses them, and from the few who try even fewer succeed.

A speedster turbine delta are a BNF shelf product where the same thing with a pulso on top would need ALOT of development and testing before working well.
