Tomislav, I have two photos in my collection showing what appears to be S_+JP (the second letter could be either E or F, but apparently is F), following the accident mentioned by Csaba, surrounded by Hungarian soldiers.
The starboard undercarriage is broken completely, while the port one is bent (accident typical to Bf 109s), and the propeller blades are bent backwards, too.
Interestingly, the Axis yellow Eastern Front fuselage ring is painted underneath the second letter in the Stkz., not on the rear fuselage. The windshield is reinfoced with an armoured glass panel.
In my database the family name of the pilot mentioned in your last post is spelled Hüchtker, and the location of his crash is given as 'near Balakleija'.
