While I have no absolute proof, I suspect that the unmarked, NDW-built Fw 190 F-8 (WNr. 932645) may be the other one.

Hello Steve,
Thank you. That's exactly what I was looking for. II./SG 3 fits with the information I have from US sources. Is there any photo known of these two aircraft? I cannot remember having seen them before.
Regards,
Roger
