Sorry to contradict you, but the Croats only had a few Macchi C.202s in 1944, with a rather dark italian top camouflage of the type applied by Breda factory (they belonged to "serie XII").

No Macchi C.205 ever operated in Yugoslavia (apart from those of ANR's 1° Gruppo Caccia who flew over Istrian peninsula on a few high-altitude interceptions...)

Didn't the Finns claim some 'Russian' P-51s?”

Hello!
Yes, IMHO classical case, pilots were warned that Soviet Union had got also Mustangs from West and they began see them. In reality Yak-9s. At least both had ventral radiator.
