Fieseler Fi 167 (TJ+AN), date unknown. This aircraft was selected to be the standard torpedo bomber for service on the never completed Kriegsmarine aircraft carrier Graf Zeppelin. It beat the Arado Ar 195 in the flyoff, however, due to the dithering over the carrier, only 14 were built. For more, see my Facebook group - Eagles Of The Reich

A Russian IL-2 Sturmovic attack plane making a torpedo run on, I'm assuming an enemy warship. I was unaware that it was used like this. I'll have to look further into it!
