Is this Russian - it is similar to the Antonov OKA-38, but that undercarriage is all wrong. A variant may be?

The gun looks like a Hispano 404.

Is it a variant of the Welkin that I don't know about?

Not from Japan Martin.

Not a variant of the Welkin David.

I think the guns are Hispano (described as 20mm) but you can't see them in the silhouette - thats a pitot out of the nose!

Don't worry one11 - yes its the IAe.30 Nancu from Argentina.

I think you handed that one over on a plate RR!

And one11 has control......

If I see NC on the rudder, this could well be a Yank.
