Hello,
The possibility that the ASO or ASo is in fact AS-zero ist still high. That would also then explain the ASMO - being ASM0. I'm trying to get an official list of subvariants of the DB605 from Daimler-Benz. If I recieve anything I will post it here. Perhaps then we will know more.

002 - still unknown (DB 605A)
