    Not Arado, this is another Brit prototype.

    I would take a guess at the Boulton Paul P92. Spats and the clue of the turret.

    I've never seen a shot of it from the front and had no idea it had anhedral centre wing sections.

    I think that might be mostly a visual effect. It was supposed to have a really wide turret fairing which filled most of the space between the engines. I'll post a top view if I can find one.

    Cheers. I've only seen drawings of it with the turret.
