JG 2 losses - 16th August 1943

I am trying to find out the identity of a FW pilot who was shot down by Norwegian Ace, Svein Heglund (331 Sqn), at 9:20am on the 16th August 1943 over Poix.

Heglund claimed this was an Italian FW but it seems likely he misinterpreted the markings in the heat of the moment. Therefore the most likely instance (especially regarding the date and location of the combat) is that this 190 came from JG 2.

Does anyone here have access to JG 2īs losses for this date and if so is it possible to ID this pilot from the location and time of combat?

Thanks in advance,

Smithy.
