And we have a winner
Congratulations HotelAlpha.
It's in fact the Lockheed P-3C Orion 60+01 "Friedrichshafen", German Navy MFG 3 "Graf Zeppelin", depicted in the background of my previous quest pic here:


Your turn

Best regards - Mike

[HotelAlpha]

Thank you Storebror (and good detail too!)


Here is mine, a bit difficult...... no hints for now, let's see what people come up with. 
Here go...

[SAS~Storebror]

That looks similar to the common british jet intakes inside a wing's leading edge, like they did it in the 50s.
Can't find a matching aircraft though...

Best regards - Mike

[Full Metal Jacket]

a DH Comet perhaps?

[HotelAlpha]

Nope, not a jet..... and it is not British.

[Gaston]

Convair B-36 ?

[HotelAlpha]

Not a Convair.

[SAS~Storebror]

Hm... let me ask you this first:
Are we searching for an aircraft at all?

Best regards - Mike

Yep it is definitely an aircraft. The picture is of an american one.... hint.... 

The specific aircraft in the photo is in the game, and it fought in WW2 as well.

[SAS~CirX]

my guess is a P61 Black Widow

[Full Metal Jacket]

radiator intake of a corsair?

[HotelAlpha]

my guess is a P61 Black Widow

Nope, the "mystery plane" has 2 engines but it is not a Black Widow.

radiator intake of a corsair?

Yep it is an intake but for a twin engine prop aircraft

As a matter of fact, the P61 and F4U have the same engine as the mystery plane.

I'll give a hint: The plane in question was a strike aircraft that fought later after WWII in Korea and Vietnam
