Isn't that a military DC-3?

If I am not mistaken the DC-3 has a wider fuselage and does not have gun ports, though I thought it was a Mosquito when I saw the thumbnail.

No, it comes out of Britain and was independently developed from the Beaufort bomber. You can follow the link above for some more information or try https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bristol_Beaufighter#Origins.
