No, the fuselage looks a bit long there for a Me-262. This photo was a genuine Soviet captured Me-262 and not a copy as far as I am aware. I am sure it was not the Sukhoi.

To be honest this a/c is the Russian SB-2 licenced plane which was produced in Czech ( called B-71B ).

captured by Russians.

This post is in connection to the Evan's post with captured Me 262 pics - the second pic.I've found info that the S-92 (Me 262A) was the second prototype completed in Czechoslovakia from orginal German components.

I have seen that one among others including one of a Me-163 Comet in Russian Colours with a Russian star. Think that one is Black and White. Have to dig through and find those although it could be a while before I get the chance to have a proper dig...

The color shot of the captured P-40 posted by Wildcat on page 4 of this thread is a scan from a slide in my collection. It was taken by James Weir at an airfield near Tokyo during the occupation.

It would have been nice to have at least received an image credit...
