Type 87 mortar equipment records. Variants, orders and quantities are shown as reported in each inventory source; coverage is incomplete.
BangladeshNumber column of the Wikipedia list table under "Mortars". The list's own wording applies; it is a compiled secondary source, not an official census.
ChinaReported count for PP-87 (Type 87). Service scope: People's Liberation Army Ground Force; does not replace a national total. 1 distinct count cell(s) from the same source list; shared rowspan cells counted once. Retired, wholly reserve and on-order rows are excluded; the reported count retains any explicitly mixed stock scope in the quoted row. Count column(s): quantity: 2,880. Origin: China. 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.
