Bär's Bf 109F-2 WNr.8318, 12./JG51 ? (1 Viewer)

Hello,

Surfing on the web to search infos regarding "Heinz Bar/pictures", I found this photo

Due the number of victories on the rudder, could this photo be the Bf 109F-2 WNr.8318 "braun 1" flown by Bär during August 1941?
I found 2 infos (?) regarding WNr.8318 in Jagdfliegerverbände der Deutschen Luftwaffe 1934-1945 Teil 6/1:
- Page 349: 07.08.41 12./JG51 Fw. Otto Steitz (v) Feindflug, unbekannte Ursache, Raum Roslawl, 100% Bf 109F-2 wnr.8318 br.1++
- Page 351: 31.08.41 12./JG51 Lt. Heinz Bär Staffelführer (v) Luftkampf, Notlandung nö. Nowgorod-Seversky, 100% Bf 109F-2 wnr.8318 br.1++

I can offer only a little more, so far. The photo was taken at Schatalowka Airfield, Aug. 13, 1941. The pilot to the right is Ofw. Heinrich Hoffmann

By squinting real hard, I make out c. 55 victory bars which = around 10 August 41.
