This aircraft is a Fiat G91, a model produced in a joint venture by Italy and Germany. Besides these two countries only Portugal operated this model and it had an extensive operational activity in the African Wars (1961-1975). In fact it was paramount in the Portuguese strategy, offering ground support to the operating troops.
This specific aircraft somehow is located in a private property. It was probably bought as a scrap and renovated and painted with a Tiger Meet scheme.
Here, there is a photo of it basically like junk:
