Encounter with an RAF Sunderland 9 AUG 1943

Sunderland Q of 201 Squadron under F/O L J Wilson RCAF reported on 9 August 1943 that they had exchanged fun fire with a Dornier Do217.

Would the identity of that Dornier be determined I wonder?

The Sunderland was patroling off and SW of the Brest Penninsula. Time in ORB of enchange was 22:00 hrs.

I guess it was most likely a Ju88 of V/KG40 ?
