Please not again the "rebuilt theory" ---the Erla factory had the order to use all the G-6/U2-tubes not used more in G-6 production because the production of this version was stopped. So this tubes weren't rebuilt because never were used before. And why the surprise because of the DB605D? This was the normal engine of the Erla G-10 from begin of delivery - the AS engine was an rare exception --- so the DB 605AS would be an surprise.
And ... the a/c was delivered on 30./31.10.1944 to Luftwaffe units. If the loss was on 26.11.1944 would be an use in a EJG, then an rebuilt from G-6/AS to a G-10 and a supply to a new unit (all in all 3 weeks) a very, very hard thing
