Can't see it being a main wheel, and looks too heavy to be a tail wheel, so it must be some sort of nose wheel.

Too compact for an A4 maybe, although i thought that too. So, chunky nose gear, with nose wheel braking - pure guess - A10 ?

I'd have to check but I think the A-10 has only one wheel brace. Yeah, it's not an A-10. I have been looking for a long time and have not found it yet.

Nope, not a Dassault Ouragon

You are close, and you have the right country of manufacture

Take it away mate (remember, pics must be ones you've taken, not from the internet !)

Darn! Soon as I knew it was French, I thought of the Flamant, but also thought "No, not in the USA"!!
Good call.
