Early 1930-style Aircraft for You to Name

Hi all,

here is a new aircraft of which I cannot find the correct designation. The boxy thing is from aviadejavu.ru, but from a picture listing without names. The given period is 1934, but when you go to the 1934 section of aviadejavu.ru, it is not included.

So do you know what this is? If so, please tell me. I mean the design style points to USSR as origin.

Thank you for every answer!

Regards, RT

Hi RT.

It’s the one-off French Wibault 366 with Hispano-Suiza 12Ybrs engine. It was intended to be flown by Challe and Molinier in the 1934 MacRobertson Trophy Air Race but never took part in the end.
