Judy could haul two 330 liters underwing drop-tanks.
No recollection of a dog-fighting Judy but some vague recollection of dog-fighting Vals.

Yes, underwing drop-tanks does not remove the possibility that the plane was a Judy and there were several cases Vals dogfighting with Allied fighters. But I also cannot recall a dog-fighting Judy but my knowlede on late 43 - early 44 aerial warfare in SWP is fairly limited.
