Yep it most certainly was the NA-98x it used the cowling structure from the A-26 to help speed up testing. it also had clipped wings

Tu-2?

Mex, it’s not even macgivers turn, it’s Mikes turn.

[SAS~Storebror]

Just go ahead it's fine with me 

[P51vsFw190]

I retract my statement

[SAS~Storebror]

You can retract your gear but the statement was just fine
I agree with mexchiwa on macgiver's quest pic, it looks like a Tu-2 engine installation indeed.
The engine shown would either be an R-2600 or an M-82, the colors indicating that it's the latter (typical "Brilliant Medium Blue" underside and "Light Sand-Brown" on the upper side of the cowling).
M-82 would potentially be found on Tu-2, Pe-8 and La-5 and it's successors.
The location of the oil radiator gives away that it's a Tu-2.

Macgiver, confirmation?  If I'm right (and with Storebror on my side I can't be wrong) then open house... 

[mexchiwa]

99% sure it's a Tu-2.  To keep things moving, open house

[rockdoon]

here you go maybe this one will present a challenge
