Unfortunately, as with Major Anton Hackl, it is not known which type(s) he flew when achieving these. Personally, at the current point in time and based on the available evidence I would say that Oberleutnant Hans Dortenmann is the verified holder of the title.

Horrido!

Hi,
It seems that Heinz Marquardt of 13./JG 51 had 6 confirmed 109D-9 victories ,from 24 April 1945 to 1 May, as based on Jerry Crandall
