Looks like a Pe2 on steroids (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/wink.gif) But the earlier shown Mig-5 it is.

I'm not so sure about that. I have photos of both MiG-5 prototypes, and there are some significant differences. The MiG-5 had a considerable sweep to the leading edge of its wing, and a different landing gear design (and wheel well doors too). I don't know what this is, but it doesn't look like the aircraft in my photos.

Hold on a minute... I just found a third copy of the above photo and the caption reads "Ta-1". Apparently, there is little significant difference.

TA-3 it is (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/smile.gif)
I wouldnt know if that is BIS or not - Photo reads simple TA-3, but who knows????
And there is something else:
Prototype was called OKO-6 BIS and was a difference between final TA-3.
OKO-6 BIS and TA-3
Engine 2 x M88 / 2 x M89
Armament 4 x ShVAK + 2 X BS / 1 x 37 mm + 2 x ShVAK
That was the middle changes of OKO-6 in evolution stage to TA-3
At first OKO-6 was much different, but unfortunatly I dont have any data on that regard.
