Just noticed that there is a new Diana out on PyramydAir. It’s called the Diana 3400. Wow. Very interesting. U.S.A. made, but German parts. Comes with a gas-piston or a spring for the same price. Opinions?
What in the world is this? A new DIANA!?!

Looks like Umarex is putting together guns in the US using Walther Parts. Probably since Walther didn't take off on its own in the US market and to add extra profit selling them for more than what the Walthers used to sell for using the RWS badge this time around.

You can buy them for $280 with free shipping if you shop smart. Google can be your friend to save money (OR NOT)

It is not a Diana. RWS and Diana split. It is assembled in the US and is similar to a Diana Model 34 but there are differences.

It's not a Diana, it's basically (but not exactly) a Walther Terrus assembled in the USA of German-made components.
RWS is only a distributor/importer of Diana in the USA, and looks to be taking advantage of the fact that people often confuse get that confused by marketing a name that evokes thoughts of the Diana 34.
Provels' link above is a good one to review. There are also a couple of threads on GTA that try to clear this up. I would just focus on Hector's comments in this one: https://www.gatewaytoairguns.org/GTA/index.php?topic=173569.msg155959421#msg155959421
