Thanks to its reliability and robustness, the Ju-52 was a great success: more than 4200 examples were produced for Germany, but also 170 examples were built in Spain with the designation Casa 352.
In France, 538 machines were still produced in the Amiot factories under German occupation. The Ju-52 was so well designed that in 1944, when the German armies withdrew, it was decided to continue production under the designation AAC.1:
The aim was to increase rapidly the air transport capacity of the armies. In the works of the Ateliers Aéronautiques de Colombes (AAC), 415 AAC-1s with the name "Toucan" were produced.
