FW 190 w/n 173056

Hi,
I'm looking for some information on Focke-Wulf 190-A8 w/n 173056.

Several publications list the aircraft as being manufactured in Cottbus in July 1944 however the original data tag is stamped with NAT which indicates Marienberg.

There is some suggestion that this aircraft served as "White 14" of I/JG11.

This blog (http://falkeeins.blogspot.com.au/201...gust-1944.html) suggests that 173053 was flown by Gefr. Paul Dorlöchter of 3./JG 11, downed by US anti-aircraft fire in the vicinity of Mantes, 24 August 1944 so I assume that 173056 was a part of the same gruppe.

Any information is greatly appreciated.
