MBR-2 shot down March 10,1943

Can anyone help me to determine which JG / pilot claimed an
MBR-2 of the Black Sea Fleet affiliated to 18 OMRAE which took off
on the night of March 12,1943 from Gelenjik flying to Bagerovo near
Kerch , Azov Sea ( the date could also be 13.3.1943 according OBD)

It came in contact at low altitude with the German naval fleet
which at their turn opened fire at the MBR-2 confusing them with a
torpedo aircraft . A German night fighter ME-110 intercepted the
flying boat and shot it down near Arabat.
