Ja, Me-109v21...to me looks more like a Hamp than anything else (except for empanage).
according to this web site it engine is a BMW 139 (twin wasp knockoff), airframe is a modified Emil (i dont see the tailplane braces - they're not shown in the 3view either)

normally i dont consider prototype A/C fair game for "name this", but this one was too cool to pass up, so i justified it by telling myself it was a version of a WWII combat A/C...anyone have any other pix of this plane?
