Default Jet takeoff from grass??

Im considering building a jet in a couple of years. Can a model jet takeoff from a grass airstrip or is it very different than other models and require asphalt? FOD damage? Will the engine on say a F-16 or Eurofighter suck debris from grass, rocks, seed, etc into the engine(Ducted Fan)? Microturbine? Thanks
