I was sure that I'd seen this aircraft posted here before, but I couldn't find it. Oh, well...
Gentlemen, behold!

Other sources are designating it as Fw 95 and te six engined variant the
Fw 195 (aerokurier 1/1964)
 
Than you for this.

Is there any more data available? Sadly I can't make out the dimensions on the posted images.

Which engines was the aircraft designed to use?
 
From "Kurt Tank: Focke-Wulf's Designer and Test Pilot - Wolfgang Wagner - Schiffer 1998".

One wonders, just where the German military would of been able to obtain enough fuel to fly beasts like this in the wartime conditions of Germany?
 
The design was from 1942, a time when the situation still was quite good and there still were
hopes to conquer resources. And even later, it would have been just pondering between
using up quite a lot of fuel and supplying troops with desperately needed supplies, or getting
rare resources. ;)
The picture posted by Maveric in slightly better quality (from the mentioned aerokurier)
