Luftwaffe reports on downed Lavochkins

Hi Folks,

I am wondering if the Luftwaffe made any difference between the older LaG-5 ('LaGG-5') and the later La-5F, La-5FN (with bubble cockpit) fighters in their victory claims during 1944-45? In 1945, for instance, most of the Lavochkin units used newer La-5FN, La-7 fighters, but the German victory reports still very often talk about the old LaG-5 planes... Any opinion?

Cheers,

Gabor
