I can provide some details of this case from Soviet side. The link you adressed has several confusions. As regards to JG54 narration I would like to see it myself, since obviously there is a huge overclaim here.
Hello,

This days the 1 VA loose only :

2 Pe-2 shooted down by the Flaks
3 Pe-2 shoot down, 2 by ennemys aircraft and one severely damaged by flak who made on energency landing in soviet zone.
1 Yak-9 from the french GC3 Normandie.
2 Yak-7 + one Yak-7 of the 303th who made an energency landing in soviet zone.
4 La-5 : 3 shoot down and 1 who made an energency landing in soviet zone.

10 aircrafts for 24 claimed victory. Which makes a 240% overclaiming.

For those who would like to be interested in the Soviet overclaiming today: they claim 10 Fw-190.

If anyone is interested, I would like to have a look at the German references in detail.
