    Seafox is the correct answer. Personally I only know because i attempted to build a plastic model of one during my mis-spent youth but the b:angry::angry::angry::angry::angry:d just wouldn't go together!

    It's something -Delanne, but not, I think, Westland-Delanne. Doesn't look Brit to me.

    It is one of the French Delanne types (thanks for remembering the name Oli!) but I don't know which off the top of my head.

    Ah-ha!

    Arsenal-Delanne 10.

    Told you - too ugly to be British! :lol:
    Oli
    PS I only got the Delanne bit because I've just finished reading Tony Buttler's book on British Secret Projects 30s & 40s. Westland really had a thing for Delannes

    Oh good grief. Normally I'd reach behind me a pull a book of the shelf, but I'm house-sitting for my sister this week.
    Okay, first guess, Brit (roundels are a clue :lol: )
    I've seen it, but remembering... nah.
    Handley-Page?

    OK is it a poor illustration of Westland's proposed Lysander modification? I don't remember the nose looking like that on the drawings I've seen before.

    Ok, I give up. Unless.. it's not one the abortive ground-attack types is it?
    Otherwise, no idea

    Westland Pterodactyl

    picture from:
    http://freespace.virgin.net/john.dell/
    The site is worth a look.

    Now, your one.
    It looks like somebody took an F-14, a mirror, and a JSF and painted the resulting image. :D
