Henschel HS129

I can't tell what version.  It lacks the 4 MG151/20s, nor does it have the PaK-40 75mm anti-tank gun.

It looks like it is carrying the MK 101 30mm cannon in the ventral pod though.

EDIT:

The picture is so close that I didn't see the muzzle grooves initially.  It does have the 4 MG151/20s and is probably an Hs129B-2.

Thanks Wotan.

Now that one has the 4 MG151/20 cannon and I think I can just make out the aft end of the MK 101's ventral gondola.

Probably an Hs129B-2.

EDIT:

I looked at the first picture again and I can make out the 4 MG151/20s.  The picture is so close that it looked like it lacked the muzzle grooves in the side.  The top one is an Hs129B-2 as well.
