Don't know what aircraft it is, intelligence didn't do a too stellar job so far, but soon we'll know more mate, soon!

HQ has been analysing the photo.
It has been compared to the 190D:
It has also been compared to the TA 152:
HQ's experts have commented as to their opinion.
"We think it is a 190D even though at first glance the nose appears thin and long because of the end of the wing-tips are a dead give-away. They aren't very pointy like a TA 152 are they? Also judging from the canopy it seems the pilot is sitting over the wings not behind (a bit) them as in the TA-152. Still the nose has us more than a little worried".
"We'll need more information before we can be sure".

It has to be the Dora, the wings are too short for the 152. When will you let us know Mathais? That's the burning question...and "in due time" is not an acceptable answer.

We heard from reliable sources that the mystery aircraft is currently being prepared for combat trials.
The source claims that several of the above aircraft are being prepared with camo and unit markings so we expect them to appear in larger numbers soon.
In the meantime we received a photograph captured by a B-17 tailgunner of another as of yet unknown German fighter aircraft that dived from very high altitude on the bomber stream.

...and from that angle, it looks like the 152. Please, oh please, tell me you're doing a Dora/152 package?!?! Basically a "Kurt Tank's Greatest Hits" compilation. This would be absolutely PHENOMENAL Mathias.

Could it be BOTH!!!????
Could it be they are both the same plane!!??
Either way.....Right!!..........where are my black leather gloves!!!!
Exciting stuff!!

I'm quite sure the last pic shows a Ta152 H. The first one could be a Ta152 C as well. Hmmm...
Looking forward to see more!

Klemm, you might be right. Looking at the first picture again, I'm thinking more Ta, than Dora.
