Good question... Registration #398N is supposed to have been carried by a Rhon Ranger glider (c/n G-483) but this obviously ISN'T it.
My first impression was that it might be an Aeromarine-Klemm... Interestingly, #396N was an Aeromarine AKL-26B (c/n 3-71), while #399N was an Aeromarine B... whatever that was!
Adding to the mystery, the registration that came immediately before that (#397N) was given to another Burnelli, a UB-20 (c/n 5)...
 
Here's a Burnelli type I previously didn't know, the X-3 "Guggenheim" prototype (source: Jahrbuch der Luftfahrt 1931-32):

Proposed against USN OS-117, which was won by Grumman with what became the S2F.

I had no idea Burnelli had continued to submit military designs into the 1950s. Amazing project, for which I can't thank you enough.

A big surprise;

I get this report about Burnelli,it contains the Projects; B-2000 as a six engined military/civil
transport and B-2000B bomber,also V-1000 conventional transport aircraft and B-1000 four
engined bomber,also the X-BAB-3 three seat high-speed light bomber.

A big surprise indeed, thanks a lot for sharing. I'd been on this site a long time ago, but didn't realize it was still being updated with new material. Although most of these projects were known, we never had so much detail at our disposal. Also, the V-1000 is totally new to me.
 
Many thanks to you my dears Skyblazer and XP67_Moonbat,

and I have anther report for Burnelli,but I can't remember where it's now ?.

Wow… much greatness. That V-1000 is terribly mysterious. Looks like a Vickers design! Vickers V-1000… why does that sound familiar? ;)

So the V-1000 is just a straw-man airplane? I'm crestfallen. :'(

Thanks folks. This must have been an early configuration for what became the OA-1 Clyde Clipper. What kept me from thinking about the Clyde Clipper was the fact that the design lacked the characteristic canted tail fins that the OA-1 had. Also the designation "BR Mark II" was different.

I'm attaching a quick comparison of the BR Mark II profile, the cutaway profile the patent artwork, and the profile of the actual OA-1 Clyde Clipper as it was built. This will show the differences as well as the many similarities.

I suspect that the middle-image from Skyblazer's comparison is actually of the Clyde Comet.

The associated top view shows that the trailing edge of the thick section center-wing is equal in span to the leading edge. However, in the other Clipper/OA-1 drawings I've found the leading edge is slightly wider span than the trailing edge.

This seems to be support by the fact that it is heavily armed.
 
What was this ?.

That looks like a model of a variant of the Burnelli CBY-3 Loadmaster.

Perhaps searching would be easier, if the source would be given ? ::)

Sorry my dear Jemiba,

I don't remember the source,it was from my old collection,I tried to figure about it on
Internet again,but no way
 
Ok, it's a pity.
Couldn't find it via reverse picture search, too, but the big two bladed props
and the big wheels make me think of a rubber band powered model ...
