TsAGI 3-EA
Russian, 1933, Photo is from Aviastar
Aaah, a lot better now, ain't it?
Edit: if by incomplete you are referring to the anti-torque rotor, then maybe it's just that the tail boom is longer than it appears to be and the photo only shows a part of it.
It is stated that this one's very similar to the 1-EA model, which has two small anti-torque rotors at the very tip of the tail and two at the front end.

TsAGI 3-EA
Yes its the TsAGI 3EA, which flew but only with a tether. It was to have forward and rear contra rotating-rotors. See also the TSAGI 1EA for an idea of what it would have looked like when complete.
All yours HP
Edit to say, LM
I have it as the TsAGI 1-EA, with missing rotors.
