	Galland flew his first of 300 combat missions in Spain with the J/88 commander Gotthard Handrick, on 24 July 1937, near Brunete. During his time in Spain, Galland analysed the engagements, evaluated techniques and devised new ground-attack tactics which were passed on to the Luftwaffe. His experiences in pin-point ground assaults were used by [https://de.metapedia.org/wiki/Udet,_Ernst Ernst Udet], a proponent of the dive bomber and leading supporter of the Junkers Ju 87 to push for Stuka wings. [https://de.metapedia.org/wiki/Richthofen,_Wolfram_von Wolfram von Richthofen] used them to push for the opposite: [https://de.metapedia.org/wiki/Schlachtflieger ''Schlachtflieger''] dual combination fighter-bombers. After trials with [https://de.metapedia.org/wiki/Henschel_Hs_123 Henschel Hs 123s], [[Bf 109]]s and [[Ju 87]]s, the Junkers was selected to undergo trials for the dive bomber role.

	During his time in Spain, he developed early gasoline and oil bombs, suggested the quartering of personnel on trains to aid in relocation, and following the ~~Nationalist~~ victory was awarded the ‘Spanish Cross in Gold with Swords and Diamonds' for his contributions. On 24 May 1938, Galland left Spain and was replaced by [https://de.metapedia.org/wiki/M%C3%B6lders,_Werner Werner Mölders]. Before leaving he made ten flights in the Bf 109; deeply impressed with the performance of the aircraft, it persuaded him to change from a strike pilot to a fighter pilot. Galland's fellow student and friend at the ''Kriegsschule'' in Dresden, Johannes Janke, later said of him "a very good pilot and excellent shot, but ambitious and he wanted to get noticed. A parvenu. He was crazy about hunting anything, from a sparrow to a man."
