Since I don't believe the Go 242 was used on the Western Front, and during the ever shrinking area controlled by the III Reich such theater markings probably meant very little by April/May 1945.

Good question Maciej.
Looks like an Egyptian symbol of Horus and if so, the upper left corner must represent the Vulture goddess Mut (Mwt) "Mother".

I had a feeling that I saw this before in some relation with P-40s, and this connection was right. It's the emblem of 79th FG:

and this has sense - 79th FG emblem on the starboard side, 86th FS emblem on the portside.
