Ah, sorry Graeme. By 'two distinct types', I meant the original series - A,B, C etc, then, for want of a better description, the modified version which still had a 'series' letter, an a different name, but not turboprop or similar 'conversions'.
Nit picking, I know, but Gary is close, and you are closer !
A very strong clue to help - this model was American, and an earlier series before ..............
 
Nope.
I think I've confused things, and made this ore complicated than it should be, so my apologies.
The particular type was built in America, had a certain conversion, and was used by another country as a military aircraft, mainly in another country again !
It's a military aircraft, outwardly not very different to others in the series, and had an effective ground attack capability.
The 'series' letter was also out of sequence .......

No need Terry - I'm thoroughly enjoying this!

For the French in North Africa?

So would it be > North American (Sud-Aviation) T-28S Fennec?

Google says there's one at Duxford - close to your camera?

Fennec - DUXFORDfotoGALLERY

 
That's the one Graeme !
The T-28S 'Fennec', used by the French in North Africa, and there are two at Duxford, where the pic was taken.
I took the pic as a detail shot for the model I'm still waiting to finish, and cropped it for this 'quiz', having noticed the tail of the second one in the background, which I suspected might cause some to think the subject had twin tails !
The subject is the 'silver' example, the camouflaged one is in the background - pics of both below.


 
Thanks Terry - we got there in the end!

Just goes to show what an impressive and diverse career the T-28 had.

But full marks to Gary for getting to the T-28 stage when I was off hunting Jap float-planes - so over to you Gary...
 
Very sporting of you Graeme, and I guess Gary did get its original designation with T-28A.
I'm probably wrong, as no war bird is 'cheap' to run, but the 'Fennec', or 'Tojan' has always seemed to me like an affordable war bird, 'affordable' being a relative term !
 
Sorry chaps, been neglecting you guys !
I thougtht it was a 28 as I posted a similar shot waaaay back.
Have a go at this one
 
Sorry chaps, cant get used to this new-fangled method of applying pics !
 
Not a bad stab Jim, but no, not the Northrop Raider.
However it is a large tail-dragger like the Raider.
