I was referring to the aircraft in general - not just the cockpit.

Next and possibly the last clue - it's Czech.

Looks great though.

Looks like it might be a bit unstable.

I think B-25 with unusual spinner, practically I am sure: air rush up, landing gear, wing dihedral, propeller...

Cowling and carburettor air intake are also unusual, might be a completely different engine installed here.
Other than that I agree, the wing, nacelle, gear... that's all B-25 stuff.
We seem to be looking at some kind of B-25 engine test bed here.

Okay, have it.
It's not an enginge test bed, it's the NA-98X "Super Strafer":


Indeed it's using different engines, these are P&W R-2800s.

That is reserved for the XB-28. It is truly a Super Mitchell.
