Aircraft I/D required (redux)

[Dénes Bernád]

Can someone identify this aircraft, reportedly shot down over France (according to the eBay seller):


Thanks,

[Revi16]

Maybe one of the Potez 6xx series of aircraft?

I am not convinced it's a French aircraft after all.
It can also be a Soviet one (Petlyakov Pe-2?).

I am close to opt on a PE-2 series, I need a higher resolution photos based on which I can finally identify the type
though according the Nr 4 painted on mid section is definitely a VVS twin rudder aircraft

It 's not a Po 63 or LeO 451, these two type a/c have a stabilizer with dihedral. the graphics of 4 is not french.
I think it's not a Pe2, Pe 2 had the stabilizer with dihedral and a median position.
On the picture, the stabilizer has not dihedral and it is on the top of fuselage.

If is none of the above what's your choice then ? fact is , it was VVS aircraft and with great certainty a twin engined one.

Anyone entertaining the possibility that it's a Bf110? Is that splinter pattern camouflage on the wing?

The tail is too rounded for an Bf 110.

The leading edge of fin is straight, stabilizer has no dihedral, the ratio A/B of fin with the stabilizer, perhaps the a/c is a Do 17

Not arguing with you, just trying to understand which area you're talking about. Do you refer to the tail fin.....or the base/tip of the fuselage? If you are talking about the base of the fuselage - remember it's almost a 3/4 angle, not in profile, so you see (possibly) more of a rounded shape.....if this is a Bf110.
