In fact, as mentioned above, there were a number of prototypes after V15 designated for testing of the 109E series, they included V16, V17, V18, V19, V20, V21, V22.
As far as continuing the discussion, I will say I am still of an open mind if someone has further information on this aircraft and the test. At this point though, it would seem clear that a) it was a prototype, b) it was not armed with standard E series weaponry, c) Boost levels, fuel type and weight are unknown.
