I'd guess the designation "G-10/AS" was used on unit level only - from time to time (if the machine had another engine than an DB 605D).

To get certain informations is difficult because the factory archive got some direct hits during the raids in 1943 - 1945. The most of surviving documents was destroyed after the war --- after the liquidation of the firm. They had other problems to safe "old" documents.

Regarding the other points I have to check the documents again.

Best regards
