We take the null limit of the Szekeres metric, and obtain a generalization of the Kinnersley rocket metric. It may be viewed as being an inhomogeneous assembly of 2-surfaces that have intrisic spherical, planar or pseudo-spherical symmetry. This new metric inherits many properties of the Szekeres metric, so it has no Killing vectors, no quadrupole moment, and emits no gravitational radiation. We also show that the Kantowski - Sachs-type Szekeres metric is a regular limit of the Lemaître - Tolman type, thus unifying the two Szekeres types.
