The Ongoing Mystery Aircraft Thread Part Deux.

Been looking but no hits yet. Most of it looks German to me except that tail...

Where is Dave Kent these days? He is usually spot on with these types.
 
39T ? An incomplete designation, sir, and your accompanying pdf illustrates the 393T powered by Gnome-Rhone motors.
This is actually the sole 392, F-AMOD, with Hispano-Suiza engines, and I assumed a trimotor buff would have sussed this right away - :jump:

Phew, tough crowd.
:cool:
You must have more accurate source material. I never could get a real clear picture of all the 390 series. Nice photo btw!

It's an obscure Italian, just not a Meridionali. This one-off was built for recon duty.

Might Breda be the elusive manufacturer?

Blasted Italian prototypes.
