+1,looks like Arado, but I like the look anyway.

I think its the look of the fanopy or front part for me. Plus it is a bit squat. 234 is longer in length.

The two pics are of different aircraft.....

The second pic differs, in that it has a twin vertical stabiliser arrangement and a remotely operated rear gun position.... possibly not the He 343 maybe  ?

I'm not sure but my guess is that it's a He 343 model of a nightfighter:
