Bf109K-4 production at "Bürg"

Flicking through a brand-new book about the Flossenbürg concentration camp I saw several copies of documents concerning the dispersed Messerschmitt production at this place. The Messerschmitt documents - classified as "Geheim!" called the production site KZ Flossenbürg with its codename "Bürg" - similar to "Gauting" or "Stauffen". SS documents were talking of this site under the code designation "Rüstungsfertigung 2004" - with a map depicting the former granite quarry installations almost completely for plane production. Interestingly most installations were used by Messerschmitt, showing the size of this particular production site. The Messerschmitt documents wore stamps of official US authorities so we know where these documents have vanished...

Does anybody know the designation "Bürg" or "Rüstigungsfertigung 2004"? This was totally new for me.

Regards

Roland
