This is a modern restoration, of unknown origin and accuracy. If correctly restored, this looks like a factory built “solid nose”, with external armour plate on cockpit sides, but lacking the four side-mounted guns and armoured windshield. You can see the armour plate just below side window.
If you browse online, you can easily find pictures of field modified B25. If the guns are 4 or 5, it’s a field mod. If the guns are 8, look for the overpainted transparent nose panels and a different nose contour, of a little less rounded shape. At least, this is AFAIK, but there’s probably more.
The interesting thing is that field mod could be simpler to model, being equally good for NG campaign or missions.
