Fokker 50 equipment records. Variants, orders and quantities are shown as reported in each inventory source; coverage is incomplete.
Naval Aviation exact named equipment holdings of Fokker 50. Active, operational-reserve and training units excluding equipment in store; November 2025 IISS assessment. Named service only, not a national or parent-force total or combat-readiness measure. Source role(s): AIRCRAFT / SIGINT, AIRCRAFT / MP. No heading aggregate, carried armament, crew, payload, factory production or future order count inherited. The source declares a separate Naval Aviation subsection within Navy. Family total is the sum of the separately printed nonoverlapping exact model components, each explicitly declared by its own source; no parent or sibling variant identity inferred.
Dated directory active-fleet estimate for Fokker 50, grouped under Fokker 50. Only the explicitly listed service/role Active cells are included. Ordered, stored and upgrade aircraft are excluded. This is the directory coverage of these source types, not a national total, complete owned-fleet census or readiness count.
Reported count for Fokker 50 · F27 Mk.50. Service scope: Republic of China Air Force; does not replace a national total. 1 distinct count cell(s) from the same source list; shared rowspan cells counted once. Excludes retired/reserve/on-order rows. Count column(s): in service: 3. Origin: Netherlands. The listed variants/roles are the scope, not an immediately deployable count. The components do not establish one inventory census date; the stored date is the retrieved source snapshot.
