Any details for fleshing out the captions ?

I'm doubtful that it's from NSG 1 because it has no flame dampers for night operations and lacks the characteristic V8+__ code seen on known aircraft of that unit. On the other hand, they and NSG 2 were receiving all kinds of Ju 87s at the very end of the war as supplies of the "correct" ones ran out. And frustratingly that Werk Nummer is almost readable!
