I spotted this

To begin with I thought captured Ki-45 or -46 but not right for either I don't think & I can't find anything that fits. Quite an attractive aeroplane to my eye.

No matter now, found it, Curtis's A-18 Shrike. I did a image search on the photo bucket image rather than the Mission4today one & found a Spanish forum that ID'd it. Lf do a resin kit apparently, I don't think my need runs to that. :unsure:

Hi Paul,I think from my very recent reading the XA-14 was an earlier version of the A-18 with less powerful engines & 2 bladed props. Ultimately the A-18 lost out to the A-20, two hours ago I'd never heard of it.
