Type to Identify

Hi. Can anyone id the type in the photo. Generally looks like Bf110 prototype but some things look not right, including what looks like tailplane bracing. Of course I may be totally off the mark and can't track down where I found it.

Hello

Bf 110 V1 (W Nr 868, D-AHOA), with Jumo 210B engines and Hamilton-Standard propellers. Tail and nose slightly different versus later exemplars.

Regards

Re: Type to Identify

Hi and thanks.

What had me confused was what appear to be tailplane bracing as no other V1 photos I have seen show this. Was it only fitted for initial trials or something.

Regards

MIke
