Westland P.12 "Delanne" Lysander and BV.155 (V-2?)
The german one is one of my wet dreams, while the Delanne is.. well. I didn't even know Lysanders and Lancasters could mate.

Congrats, both are correct. And yes, I think (but am not fully sure) that it is actually the V-2 of BV.155B.
Your turn

Thank you Sniperton
For more information, the BV.155 is an extreme evolution of Bf.109, through Me.155.
Of course, not much parts were still in common!
Aaaaand: the quiz
Not a photo, but still an airplane!

Did ever leave the drawing table?
The wing without dihedral, engines too advanced and tail long and high, differentiate it from the meteor, but not too much...

It was my first thought, too. Come on man, show us the real thing!

This specific plane was only one project, but guilty we are not: its base design flew, and so well it's still valid. Too late, of course, and wasn't selected.
On a side note, there are clues in both my answers heheehhe

That looks something like the Hawker contender to the Meteor. The P-1048.

Cabin position, wing implantation, engine size and tail lift say it is not the same plane.
Same, we are talking about things that do not exist ... so it could be the santa's sleigh.

A1_Phoenix, we need to see a real photo of a real aircraft built.
Otherwise its just a paper-project.
A "what-if" prototype paper-project for the Gloster Meteor

I don't think it's british at all.
For a Meteor the tail layout doesn't fit.
Definitely just a project plane.
I suspect a russian origin, maybe some project alongside the Alekseyev I-21 Series.
