The exhibited aircraft is one of about 200 examples of the CASA 2.111B version produced under licence until 1956 by the Spanish company Construcciones Aeronáuticas S.A. (CASA) in Tablada, with two British Rolls Royce engines in place of the German engines. After it was taken out of service by the Spanish Air Force in 1967, the plane was used in the film Battle of Britain. It flew for the last time in September 1970.

The C-2.111 is one of about 200 examples produced under licence until 1956 by the CASA in Tablada. After WWII, availability of the German-built Junkers engines was obviously problematic and so CASA used instead the R-R Merlin 500 - these becoming the B and D-versions. This example was retired by the EdA in 1967 but then used in the film 'Battle of Britain. It flew for the last time at in September 1970 and is now on display at theDeutsches Museum - Flugwerft Schleissheim.
