Kaki,

Thanks for posting the image! I've had a long (30+ years) relationship with this kite.

A close look at the '3' reveals the letter 'A' within it, thus confirming it was originally coded "B3+AT" of 9./KG 54, later becoming "ge.3+I" of the same unit in mid-March 1945 when the KG(J) units changed to the fighter-type identity markings.

Based on its camouflage and markings this was a long-lived machine from the late 170xxx or early 1105xx series. The Verbandkennzeichen does not appear in Radtke's compilation so a Werkummer match cannot be made but I have a few candidates.

Cheers,

David
