Result of a bad accident on the runway!Looks like an Me110 tail, Pzl wings, Stuka canopy, and an He51 trainer nose and engine. The real question is not 'what' but 'WHY!'

It is indeed the Arsenal-Delanne 10 in German markings. Which would make sense as after the completion of 6 hours of test flights (Not all at once mind you, the first flight was done in October of 1941, and about 15 test flights were made in all at Villacoublay) the fighter was shipped to a German experimental center for further tests...FYI 71hemicuda, it was a French design.

If you build it, I will fly it According to my (now, where the heck are they?! Ah, here they are) notes the prototype captured by the Germans at Villacoublay, flew for the first time in October 1941. A note: The Pulawski's wing usedd in this construction was an acclaimed design. Patented and sold to numerous firms, it afforded the pilot the best possible visibility (his view would be only obstructed virtually by the thickness of the wing if the cabin was positioned in the right place). Sonn the advances in srtucural design rendered this design obsolete when it became possible to build a monoplane with the cantilever wing with retractable undercarriage. Advantages in this case obviously overweighed the Pulawski design's advantages. Please don't confuse him (the designer, killed in crash in 1931) with Pulaski - the creator and commander of the US cavalry in the war of independence killed at Savannah - different mount, different age. slightly different surname. Cheers
