It was not a German Aircraft. It was actually French.

Yet another variation of the Flying Flea tandem wing, this one was designed by Frenchman Maurice Delanne in 1937. The first prototype crashed, but the second logged over 600 hours flying time. The first production model was completed just as the Germans invaded, and was completed under their supervision. Power was a 1010 Hp. Hispano-Suiza inline engine.http://www.fortunecity.com/tattooine/farmer/120/delanne.html#
 
Westland Lysander set-up in close air support role (4 gun Frazer Nash turret in rear. Pretty sure it has been posted before.

"Prototype K6127 modified in 1941 to Westland P. 12 configuration with shortened fuselage ending in Frazer Nash four-gun turret for rear defence and large-span tailplane with end-plate fins based on Delanne tandem-wing principle. First flown July 27, 1941, with mock-up turret, and scrapped in 1944."(http://www.jaapteeuwen.com/ww2aircraft/html pages/WESTLAND LYSANDER.htm)
