Originally considered Miles X 30 Minor but after checking Putnam think it's a Boulton Paul P 92/2.

OK this must be one of John's fiendish Finish flyers! A Morane-Saulnier MS406 fitted with a Klimov M105-P engine to become a Morko Moraine.

Re: Aircraft Identification Challenge 202
Had another check. Think its a Nakajima Ki-115 Tsurugi "Sabre" some references quote 'Sword'. Designed for suicide attacks, fitted with a jettisonable undercarriage.
