Re: Interesting pic?
Yeah, the tail and four-bladed prop looked familiar. Hs130 recon plane.

Re: Interesting pic?
Indeed... I'm inclined to agree, except that the propellor blades on the Henschel Hs130E-0, for example, were quite notably 'paddle-style' in appearance, and the propellor blades in this photo appear to be more slender in shape... maybe different types for different prototypes, or just the position and angle of them in this photo, I can't say. Good photo of an Hs130E-0 on page 184 of Aufklärer (Hikoki Publications) for comparison.

Re: Interesting pic?
Have not come across a data or an identification (ID) plate from the Hs 130 series. However, here's an ID plate from a Hs 128 - predecessor to the Hs 130. This plate was removed from the fuselage of Hs 128 V2 prior to scrapping (in England) after the war. It identifies the W.Nr. as 3002 and the year of construction as 1940.
