Not a Zeppelin, an aircraft.

I want to say Fw159 but I think that's wrong.

Then you're wrong, because you're right
Designed by Kurt Tank, the FW 159 it is. Successor of the FW 56, now with retractable gear that lead to this new type's first accident when the gear wold not extract properly. The Focke-Wulf company designed the aircraft as one of the four entries for the Rüstungsflugzeug IV ("Armed Aircraft IV") 1934 fighter competition. "The second 159 prototype, the V2, had a reinforced undercarriage. The general flight characteristics were good but the rate of climb and rate of turn were unsatisfactory, and the aircraft suffered greater drag than its competitors in the contest, the Arado Ar 80, Heinkel He 112 and Messerschmitt Bf 109. The competition was won by the Bf 109." Over to Buddhaid

I could have swore that would be wrong because I couldn't make out the step behind the spinner, but a parasol wing seened likely if it wasn't an engine pod.
EDIT: I also couldn't make out retractable main gear doors which made me look elswhere. It did look like there was a small bit of an iron cross showing. Okay then what and where is this?
