OLDER DATA
Only for archival purpose
Following is the list of PLA ground forces divided among five different Theater Commands. Some of these TCs command a few independent brigades, divisions and even regiments in addition to regular Combined Arms Brigades. The data is collected from multiple sources which will be presented in the last post of this series.
In addition to regular PLA Army units, there are a few Border Defence Regiment units which usually form the first line of defence on borders during peacetime. They are lightly armed and meant for border patrols, marine patrols, reconnaissance, law & order, guard duty etc. Central TC has no such BDRs assigned to it.
There are a few units in the post text which are not marked in the map below. Some of them are very new units about which little information is available and some are missing due to confusion after reorganisation. Additionally, some data like MUCD and weapons is not provided here due to formatting issues. Remaining data is incomplete but as accurate as it can be at the time of writing (March 2021) and I’ll be adding updates and improving formatting or perhaps create a e-book to present all that data.
WESTERN THEATER COMMAND
This TC has two Group Armies 76th and 77th, 2 Military Regions, Tibet & Xinjiang, a large number of independent units and Border Defence Regiments. It is responsible for border security with India, Kyrgyzstan, Kazakhstan and Tajikistan. Area of responsibility includes Sichuan, Tibet, Aksai Chin, Gansu, Ningxia, Qinghai, Xinjiang and Chongqing. It has two Group Armies, two Military Regions plus a number of independent support units and Border Defence Brigades.
UNIT | LOCATION | REMARKS |
WESTERN THEATER COMMAND. | Nanchang Road, Chengguan District, Lanzhou City | Major focus on India. This seems to be the only TC which still retains some divisions. 2 to 2.35 lakh troops from border defence units and regular army. 5-6 CBAs deployed in Depsang, Galwan, Hot Spring, Pangong Tso, Demchok and Chumar sectors. Tibet Military Region (TMR) comes under PLA’s Ground Forces Command instead of Western TC |

You didn’t seem to get a lot of attention for this but I just wanted to let you know this is some great stuff!
Its so much of hard work
Great
Can you share something on UAV Brigade, EW Brigade and Marine Brigade – organization, capability etc
Thanks. Marines have been covered to some extent in one of the posts. There isn’t much useful information available about the rest right now. Maybe will write something in a few months
It`s something different USA DoD`s report. so ot will be better cross check.
https://media.defense.gov/2021/Nov/03/2002885874/-1/-1/0/2021-CMPR-FINAL.PDF
thanks the valuable information provide by you. is it possible to get .cvs file which you refer in above map view for various theater e.g. China ORBAT Map – East TC.csv, China ORBAT Map – South TC.csv, China ORBAT Map – Central.csv, China ORBAT Map – Airborne.csv, China ORBAT Map – Marine.csv, China ORBAT Map – Border Units.csv, China ORBAT Map – North TC.csv, China ORBAT Map – West TC.csv
Hello, these details will be available at https://www.patreon.com/jjamwal
I find some wrongs, but I’m Chinese. Regrettably I can’t share them.
Why not? There’s no secrets to keep from the US. JJ has done a fantastical job from published sources. Saying “you’re wrong but I cant reveal my sources” is morally wrong.
