So it turns out the US made a clone of the Nazi's V1-bomber, which was a sort of early cruise missile powered by a pulsejet that ran at 50hz.and sadly I can't find any info on what frequency the US's clone pulsejet ran at, but in my heart it's gotta be 60hz.

@foone Perhaps the exhaust pressure is also half of the german made?

@foone Imagine if the engines got out of sync, and it's just wiggling your butt across the skies.

@foone From an old forum post I found it operated at 40hz. Quote: "Figure 6 shows a sequence of high-speed photographs of the flames at the exhaust end of the PJ-31 engine, covering a single cycle (1/40 second) of its operations"

@foone I know this isn't the same but coincidentally the US AC power grid runs at 60HZ.
