Looks very similar to the Broussard, but the cowling is wrong.

Cowling might look odd, but it is the Broussard mate.
Your control David.

Yes mate! I've got a Trivia Night coming up soon.
(Have you also got a range figure for a B-17 with 17,600 lb of bombs?)

It's not a rocket - at least I think not because it has intakes.
Not Republic.

Valkyrie...
Assuming M3.0 at 70,000 ft and a true airspeed of around 1800 knots and using 30 degrees of bank:
radius of turn about 80 nautical miles.
