Difinately either the P-43 Lancer, or YP-43.

Either way, its definately an Alexander de Seversky design.

It's a Seversky but what model. Looks like a two seat vesion of the P-35A or the aft portion of the canopy is missing.

Well, its a WAG, but if I had to pick one of the plaes from the cite I'd say P-36 Hawk.

Could it be a NA-64? But it does look like a Seversky P43 line to me.

The forrest is a monoculture of pine..soil is sandy..no undergrowth..I'd say its at a quite Northern lattitude..In the Pacific..Northern Canada, Alaska or Siberia....in Europe..the Baltic Coast, Norway, Sweden, Finland, Russia. I'd say Europe..just doesn't look like Alaska or Canada to me.

To me it looks like Macchi MC 200 Saetta (or something like this) that was used by swedish army in '30.

at last....you came closest of them all....yes it's in Sweden... a plane of Swedish airforce in 1942/1943 period.... I found a photo on a page of Swedish WW2 era airforce...they called it B-6 (or was it 7); though I'm not sure is it really an imported airplane (american or italian) or could it be of their own Swedish production (given a Swedish tradition of self-armament production)...

PS.: When I look at it one more time..it does have somewhat italian design apperance...or maybe that last post influenced my judgement

regards

Sweden did use british Gladiators so there was no problem in using italian designs before war. I did some further research and came to conclusion that its some older Macchi model. Engine cover is different, and landing gear is errr... hiding to the back of the wing instead to the fuselage (sp?)

Actually it's a Swedish import of the American Seversky EP-1(P-35),which was given the Swedish designation of J9..They had 60 actually delivered and 60 from the order of 120 were "requisitioned" by the U.S.,and sent to the Phillipines.
BTW,Japan had 20 of them,called them the A8V1..
The USAAF called their version the P-35A(in the Phillipines)..
