Claimants against soviet bomber formations in March 1945

[Monaco]

Dear all,
I´m looking for the german pilots/ units, that were successful against soviet bomber formations despite their escort as late as March 1945.

case 1)
7.3.45: 134 GBAP lost 1 Pe-2 shot down (S Frauenburg), 1 Pe-2 damaged/ force-landing in an attack on Rosenberg, when reportedly 20 Fw.190s/Bf.109s intercepted.
I assume I./JG.51 (Bf.109G) and/or IV./JG.51 from Danzig Langefuhr, though 5. & 6./JG.54 were stationed in Heiligenbeil between January and March 1945 with Fw.190A/D. 11./JG.51 lost Uffz. Lückel in air combat SE Braunsberg.

case 2)
8.3.45: 134 GBAP lost 3 Pe-2s shot down and 3 Pe-2s damaged/ force-landing during an attack by 16 Pe-2s on Heiligenbeil (Mamonovo) and Braunsberg (Braniewo). 16 Fw.190s/Bf.109s attacked.
Again I assume I. & IV./JG.51. 11./JG.51 lost 1 pilot in air combat SW Braunsberg, 10./JG.51 1 pilot S Braunsberg.

case 3)
11.3.45 18 Tu-2 of 840 DBAP attacked Königsberg port and were intercepted by 30 Fw.190s and Messerschmitts losing 9 Tu-2s.
Probably Bf.109Gs from III./JG.51 from Pillau-Neutief were involved and Fw.190A/D of II./JG.54 from Heiligenbeil.

So I would like to know, who were the german claimants? Were there more german losses in the areas mentioned? Maybe we can enlighten another episode of the "dark" last 5 months of air war on the Eastern Front in 1945...

Some possibilities from my datase:

8.3.45: Joachim Brendel, Josef Gabl and 5 unknown claimants from III./JG 51

11.3.45: Helmut Mischke of 7./SG 1 is said to have claimed 9 victories
