Equipment types: Wikidata, property P137 (operator), retrieved 2026-11-01, CC0. Types in service, per Wikidata (CC0). Not a count; may be incomplete. Each name links to its Wikidata item.
Summary text: CIA World Factbook (2025 edition, final), “Military equipment inventories and acquisitions”, public domain; the CIA took the Factbook offline in February 2026, text via the CC0 factbook.json mirror (snapshot 2026-01-21). Quoted as published.
How the list is made: Wikidata: equipment types with an "operator" (P137) statement naming the country or one of its armed forces, branches or military units (P17 = country), not deprecated and without an end time; excluding retired or dissolved types (P730/P576), designs first in service/flown/made before 1946, items without an English label and non-equipment items (bases, satellites, rolling stock). Only types are listed: single ships are shown as their ship class, single airframes and "X in Y service" classes are left out, and so are generic classes. Undated types take the latest date of their parent types; undated ship classes need a ship dated 1946 or later. Category from the item's class (P31/P279). Types with a known date are listed first, then undated ones (which can include older designs Wikidata has no date for); within each, the most-linked types (Wikipedia language editions) come first.
