Smith and Creek say that production for both aircraft (102 and 103) occurred at Mengen. Here is the history:

1) W.Nr. 240101 VG+PG was destroyed in a bombing raid on the Lowenthal plant in Friedrichshafen on 20 July, 1944. The assembly halls and workshops were heavily damaged and this forced the transfer of production to Mengen.

2) W.Nr. 240102 VH+PH and W.Nr. 240103 VG+PI were completed at Mengen.

3) "The first Do-335 to be build at Oberpfaffenhofen was the A-0, W.Nr. 240104, VH+PJ."

All my Best,

Bronc
