Any Information about the aircraft, unit and fate of the Pilot?

Thanks for your help.

After looking at the photo's I would say this aircraft wasn't shot down, but is abandoned at an airfield.

The horizontal stabilizer/elevator and rudder have been removed (tools required), the aircraft appears to have the landing gear extended (an odd circumstance for a shot down aircraft) and there is a Ju-87 sitting in the back ground.
