Appears to be an aircraft that aviation has forgotten. I must confess that the photo I posted was uncaptioned, so I'm making an assumption as to its true identity, but I think that these are it;  |

The tail of the profile painting does look slightly different to the photo I posted.
Another trainer to identify...  |

Country: | I knew it too, Wurger! Did you know that if it had a drop tank instead of a torpedo underneath, it would have been a Vickers Vincent? |

Country: | No idea yet, Graeme. But I'm working on it. It's a strange combination of modern (canopy) and classic (tail) features. And the cowling looks somewhat like a Yak-11. |

Country: | I think it might be Russian - it has a bit of a Sukhoi/ Lavochkin look about the motor and canopy to me. There appears to be the remains of a Norwegian or Ukranian roundel on the fueslage - very faint, behind the canopy. The tail interestingly looks almost British in design. |

Country: | Do you know what this is already Graeme? Is it actually Italian?
If so, I guess it could be a SIAI Machetti machine of some sort. |

Country: | There's some confusion here A4K. In this case I know the identity of the trainer, your job is to identify it.
Definitely Italian, but not a SIAI-Marchetti product. |
