Why Germany has so many planes?

I was searching for planes that were used by Spain, and when I found some, and searched them on Google I only found pictures about Nazi planes, or German planes, so I came here to ask you: Why so many German/Nazi planes?

    Because Germany produced tons of planes and was very willing to sell them. This is combined with the fact that Germany had the best planes.

    @randomusername sure, the US really doesn’t build many aircraft...it’s built more aircraft types than any other nation on earth.

    Spain had no indigenous aircraft manufacturing capability during the Spainish Civil War (1936-9), but both sides received a lot of help during the conflict. The Republicans were the left-leaning side supported by the Soviet Union, which supplied mostly the Polikarpov I-15 biplane and I-16 (“Rata” in Spanish service) fighter aircraft. The Nationalists, the right wing faction, under Generalissimo Francisco Franco, which eventually won th war, received a lot of help from the Fascist countries, namely Germany and Italy and provided a variety of aircraft, as well as pilots in the form of the Nazi “Condor Legion”. They flew a wide variety of aircraft, Ju-52 transport/bombers, He-51 biplane fighters, He-111 bombers, Ju-87 Stukas and the Bf-109 fighter. Materially, assistance was probably more significant to the Natioanalist side. It was the Condor Legion that bombed the town of Guernica, killing up to 1,000+ civilians, promping world-wide outrage and inspiring Pablo Picasso’s painting memorializing the event.

    Nazi germany put a lot of stress on new technology which is why so many different prototypes were made for aircraft.

    Because Spain received help from the Nazis during the Spanish Civil war, just before WW2
