Please ignore the guns, I'm guessing they were just stuck on at random. |

Country: | It looks... weird.
The fixed landing gear, armament, and marking suggest Fokker D.XXI, but the wings, fusalage and tail look a lot like a Buffalo. (not sure what to think about the cowling and prop)
It could be some kind of strange alteration and not a real a/c. |

Country: | Kool kitty, Thank you for the reply, I looked both up on google to see if I could find something. The Tail and the wing look completely like the Buffalo. The rest however look like the foker. This picture:
Which to give credit to the origional site was stolen from: http://www.zap16.com/mil%20fact/Fokker%20D%2 XI.htm
makes it look like a Fokker D.XXI. So.... I'm now thinking the model I bought is a combo of the 2. Interesting, wonder if that would have actually worked  |

Country: | The fusalage looks Buffalo to me too.
Is that framing/trim like stuff on the wings, fusalage, and making up the canopy added on, or part of the original model. The area behind the canopy looks like it's supposed to be canopy framing (like on the Buffalo) beven though it's painted.
Is it a plastic model (that you build) or a cusom/hand made one?
Also note that the wings are mid-mounted on the fusalage. (the Fokker is low mounted)
THe prop, nose, and cowling does look like the Fokker. (at least a lot closer than to the Buffalo's)

Country: | Kool Kitty, it is a custom metal model. I'm going to stick with it being a hybrid probably with the intent of being the fokker. Thanks again to all who helped identify.
Patoruzu, are those wings variable sweep or fixed. I'm leaning to it being a Flogger but I'm not sure. |
