This 109 was built in 1938 under licence by Erla Maschinenwerk GmbH in Leipzig. It is one of about forty Emils sent in 1939 to Spain to fight with the Condor Legion alongside the Nationalists. At the end of the conflict it remained in Spain until 1959 with the EdA and is now on display at the Deutsches Museum - Flugwerft Schleissheim in these fake Luftwaffe markings.
