I believe it's a Potez XV.
I have to check my references though. Gen. Dénes This post has been edited by Dénes on January 09, 2006 12:20 pm |

This answer needs much attentions to the details... From my eyes, and i'm not a spec. it looks like an Breguet.

Thanks for your answers. So was this a plane used by the Romanian Air Force in 1925? Was it a fighter, bomber, or recon? Were these planes (or any others) used by Romania in the First World War?
I admit to unfortunately knowing much too little about aviation. |

The Potez XV was basically a reconnaissance/light bomber airplane. It entered in ARR service only post-war. Gen. Dénes |

I'd say it's a Bf 109E.

That is an IAR 39 (or 38) biplane. Probably the Mig-3 is the one captured by romanians ( IAR 39 observation unit) and the german guy wanted a picture near him. The MIG rudder looks like overpainted with romanian markings. This post has been edited by Cantacuzino on February 09, 2006 06:00 pm |

 There is a whole article about this captured Mig-3 here. The plane in the background looks like an IAR 80. This post has been edited by Wings_of_wrath on February 09, 2006 07:09 pm |

No, it's a biplane from the I.A.R. 37/38/39 family. Gen. Dénes |
