How do we know the Fw 190 belonged to III./SG 10?

Yellow nose band is specific from Luftflotte4 late war markings

And the only Fw 190 units under Luftflotte4 commands at this time were I./SG 2 and the Stab/I./II./III./ SG 10

Good eyes! Confirmed...

...by Tessin that this must be III./SG 10. SG 4 and SG 77 were under LuftFl 6 at this time. According to Tessin, III./SG 10 was located at "Papa". Is that in what was Czechoslovakia?

Strangely, this WNr is listed as an A-9 by Rodieke and confirmed by loss lists.

Pápa airfield is in Hungary. Axis units based on this airfield were most probably part of Luftflotte 4.

Fw 190 A-9 WNr. 205998

This appears to be an Fw 190 A-9 (note the underwing Morane mast). Did the SG units in the area operate A-8s and A-9s?
