Hubert Strassl 03 Jul 1943

[Nokose]

I found this for the Soviet losses for the 03 Jul 1943 at 18:35 (Moscow) Yak-7 (# 3483) fuselage # "23" Ml. Lt. Aleksey Ivanovich Samokhin of the 233 IAP was shot down in an air battle at Krivtsovo by a Fw 190. I've got all of Priens books JFV 12/I-III. It has on 03 Jul 1943 for Fw. Hubert Strassl 8./JG 51 Il-2 (37) 17:38 PlQu. 35 Ost/64521 at 1200 meters. I've checked all the other JG units both the ones flying Fw 190s and Bf 109s and his is the only one that matches the time and even the location. The only difference is an Il-2 instead of a Yak-7. Could this be a mistake in Berlin's recording or was this a mistake in his ID? I've ran across many misidentified Soviet aircraft claimed by German pilots, example Hurricanes as MiG-3, La-5s as P-40 (P-40s as La-5), etc. Does this seem like a logical confirmation.
