hold on, locopiston - how this thread works, is you first wait for confirmation that you have guessed correctly.
You can't just assume you are correct and carry on with a new picture.
Please wait for confirmation from previous guy that your guess is correct.

If locopiston is right, the his pic is a Short Sturgeon, and I don't have anything so open house. Or am I jumping too far ahead?

Yes, it's the Finnish Pyörremyrsky (Whirlwind) Fighter of 1945 - only one flyable aircraft was completed before the end of the war.
Take a Yak and a Me-109 and mix their designs - and you get this.
Powered by a 12-cylinder inverted-Vee Daimler-Benz DB 605AC engine rated at 1475hp, the Pyorremyrsky had a single-spar wooden wing with plywood skinning and a fuselage of steel-tube construction with detachable metal panels forward and a wooden ply-covered mono-coque aft. Armament comprised one engine-mounted 20mm MG 151 cannon and two 12.7mm LKK/42 machine guns, provision being made for two 200kg bombs underwing.
The Pyörremyrsky design was considered quite successful. It could outclimb the Bf 109G-6 and it was very maneuvrable. It was considered almost ready for mass production. Its only major problem with the design was found to be the low-quality glue used in the joints.
the maximum speed at sea level 522 km / h
the maximum speed at an altitude of 6000 meters of 620-645 km / h
cruising speed 380 km / h
time of climb of 5000 meters 4 min 30 sec
Flight duration 1.5 hours
service ceiling of 11,250 m
