What aeroplane is this?
Been reading the aviation usenet newsgroup and this picture seems to have everyone stumped as to what it is. Can anyone identify it?

Got me stumped... reminds me of a Swedish type (perhaps the Lufwaffe captured/evaluated it?) but which I can't recall... If the experts can't id it this afternoon, I'll have a flick through a book tonight, see if I can spot it.

Air Warfare Forum nailed it a few months back.
Can't remember the details, but other pix were produced for a match.
It was a real a/c, the rudder's not falling off, that's the angle of dangle.
Vague memory it were Eastern Uropeen. Too tired to search now.

Also the canopy, wings and tailplane look a bit Yakkish... but not that fin and rudder!
