Re: R. Muller of 6./JG 5 victory on 30.05.42
According to Russian historian Aleksandr Mardanov, Muller shot down one HC from 2 GKAP. In this combat with 6./JG 5 (time around 9:20-9:40) 2 GKAP lost two Hurricanes as force-landed (starshiy leytenant Amosov and leytenant Panov, both survived) and two as damaged. The Germans claimed 4 Hurricanes.
Safonov was surely shot down by return fire from Ju-88, but the official reason of his loss reported as engine malfunction.
