Arado Ar 196 Aces(?)

Are there any Ar 196 Pilots with 5 and more Victories?

The most successful ex-196 pilots over the Bay of Biscay were Ofw Friedrich Jost & Oblt Heinz Wurm; Ofw Hans Gryz also had a number. They were with 5/196 which became 1/128

..Hans Dieter Gramberg - shot down & killed on the Oder Front in Jan 1945 flying a Fw 190 with II.(Sturm)/JG 300 - had previously served with Bordfliegergruppe 196 ..not sure about his 'score' though....probably not 'ace' ...

For a long time I was wondering about the what were the successful Ar-196 pilots in the term of air-to-air kills.
