Name this Aircraft, and was it ever a Working Design?

Looks like an X-4

Looks like an Old GeeBee racer used by Jimmy Doolittle in the mid to late 1930s. I do believe it was a Working Design, obviously because Doolittle used it.

That was a joke actually.....

Im assuming you mean the GeeBee is incorrect as well. But since I looked at it again and it has a jet engine.

It looks like an old model I saw somewhere of a guy who made a "X-41" Gee Bee Jet model, and how he thought it would make a great jet, and no, it was not a working design
