Does anyone know what the firearm in this picture:

is?
I've seen it tagged as an "MP-45" before. It looks like some sort of late WWII experimental design in 7.92x33mm, though it clearly is not a close relative of the STG-44 as it appears to have a rotating bolt. Since it lacks a ramp rear sight and has the charging handle on the starboard side of the receiver, I'm not even convinced it's German.
