I was thinking along the Russian lines, closest thing I can find looking similar is perhaps a Beriev MBR 2Figure8 wrote:Possibly Russian, Grigorovich?

Re: Off we go again - competition - what's this?
Having spent more time Googling that is good for me I found a Japanese site that lists an awful lot of Russian aircraft and buried deep inside it is the Chetverikov ARK-3. The pic is a from a different angle but it looks like the aircraft in yours so I'll go for the ARK-3.

Ooh, Ye-152, that makes more sense! I've just done a little bit of digging and it's a darn fast MiG-21 it seems!
