Looks a bit like a mix between a Dove and a Mossie ;)

Ohh, then it’s a DH-104 Dove 6.

Can't be because:
Last one of its type in existence
There should be at least 4 Dove 6 survivors.

I could have sworn that it's somehow related to the Dove from the development line, however now I rather think it's this one:

I’ll give it one more go and if I don’t get it I’ll wait a couple quests till I go again.

Total shot in the dark:

Ikarus 214?

Why shot in the dark? You're obviously right.

Yep, Ikarus 214, ASW / recce bomber from 1950's Yugoslavia. 22 built (including prototypes) in several variants, further development abandoned after realization that the role of medium bomber is becoming quickly obsolete given the fact that the modern jet fighter-bombers can do the job and then some.

The wreck in the photo is the last airframe in existence and is currently awaiting better times at the Belgrade Museum of Aviation when funding will be available to have it restored for display.

Not sure who should get the turn, since both Mike and James got it right. :)

What I find strange in Mike's contribution that he didn't named it as an F-35  o_O

I've been cheating and actually I'm still convinced it's an F-35 so... the baton goes to James ;)
