For the Yak claimed on 25.2.45, I found this info a long while back that might help you:

This was most likely Romanian Bf109G W.Nr. 166248/"Yellow 9" of Grupul 9. Adj. Stag Av. Traian Darjan KIA

Are you able to provide the serial numbers of the Bostons claimed on 8th January, 1945

Hello, according to his memoirs, Lipfert was alone when he attacked the two Rumanian 109s, so he didn't have a witness to his victory, did he made the claim? Sometimes pilots didn't bother the paperwork if they thought that it would be a fruitless effort.
