Certainly looks like a tachinid and with the strong facial ridge bristles & complete marginals on T4 & T5 it should be fairly distinctive but I don't recognise it myself and I would need a clearer photo (or a specimen) to be able to key it out.

Not enough for me to get an ID but maybe Theo Zeegers will have an opinion when he is back |

Metopia (Miltogramminae), either a female or a male M. campestris/grandii. Somehow, I've got the impression it's a male. More Liekele's department. Theo Zeegers |

I can not see any ocellar bristles, which should be there in case of Metopia campestris/grandii. But picture is not good enough to conclude that ocellar bristles are absent. I agree with Theo this seems to be a male. Furthermore t2 has a median ventral bristle. In that case it should be a male of Metopia campestris. Liekele |
