The 4341 was introduced in 1979 before DAS (1981), and was marketed
primarily for its ability to run in ECPS:VSE mode to support DOS/VSE. 
 
GA24-3672-4_4341ProcessorMG1FunctionalCharacteristics under Programming
Support says"programming support is  provided by DOS/VSE, OS/VSl,
OS/VS2-MVS, and VM/370".

That doesn't preclude the possibility of adding DAS support later, and
in fact the top of the 4341 line model group 12, introduced near the end
of 1982, apparently did include DAS support as a standard feature (Ref: 
GC20-2102-2 Guide to the IBM 4381 Processor, p128, comparing features of
a 4341 MG12 to features on 4381 models).  Availability on at least one
model is sufficient to demonstrate DAS support existence on a 4341.
