Identity of unusual pre-war type?

Does anybody here have any idea of the type pictured below with what appears to be an array of pitot tubes for measuring airflow?

Forms part of an interesting selection of negatives including Ernst Udet and his Curtiss Hawk…

Except for the silly “extra stab” (trim?) on the fin-top, that’s a fine looking aeroplane. Can just imagine it in airshow paint!

This has subsequently been identified over on the LEMB as the sole example of the Fieseler Fi98, of which more can be seen here.

…so many thanks for looking and Happy New Year to everybody here 🙂
