True.
It was the Soviet answer to the B-52 but they couldn't make a feasible jet powered one.

30 May 1955 pilot Lt Cmdr Paul Harwell's Cutlass suffered an engine fire upon takeoff on his first flight in the aircraft. Harwell ejected and never flew another Cutlass again. By the time he had landed on the ground,
he had spent more airborne time in the parachute than the aircraft.
Above accident: 14 July 1955 pilot LCDR Jay T. Alkire was killed in a ramp strike on USS Hancock.

The downward-firing ejection seat on an early F-104 Starfighter. Later models had an upward-firing seat.

I'm not sure what they're called - I call them ants but they aren't ants really. Probably not even...
