Focke-Wulf Fw 189

The Focke-Wulf Fw-189 was a twin-engine, short-range reconnaissance aircraft. Characterised by its double tail boom configuration and fuselage with large windows, it proved to be one of the best aircraft used in the conflict in this role.
It entered service in 1940 with the Luftwaffe. It had intensive use on the Eastern Front against the Soviet Union, where it was also used in a limited capacity as a light bomber and night fighter. Source wikipedia.
