When France was liberated some Ju 52 were captured and used. The Ju 52 had been manufactured in France during the war by the Junkers-controlled Amiot company, and production continued after 1945 as the Amiot AAC 1 Toucan (more than 500 were produced). French built Ju 52s were widely used, not only in France but also in colonial wars in Algeria, Vietnam and Thailand.
