6-7 T-55s. They will hopefully be able to refurbish a few more of the damaged vehicles in Kobane. I have seen pictures of a T-62 that might be repairable, and maybe also a T-55. They also captured a damaged T-55 in Mabrouka, and two bombed T-55`s on Abdel Aziz (only for spare parts.)

5 BMP-1 (called "panzers" by the YPG). (1 has been lost to ISIS again).

1 Decent looking homemade wheeled APC with BMP-1 turret.

2-3 MT-LB

1 BTR-60. (The sand colored BTR-60 named "BAZ" was lost to the ISIS as it drove into a ditch and had to be abandoned.)

1 BRDM-2

2 M1117 ASV

7-8 Hummers

A quite large amount of homemade armored vehicles.

Artillery:

2-3 D-30 122mm (One was recovered in damaged condition after an airstrike on ISIS position. Not sure if it could be repaired.)

1 100mm M1944 (at least it looked like one been towed by a YPG transport truck.)

4-5 S-60 57mm. Mounted on trucks as mobile artillery.

A few Type 63 107mm MRL mounted on pickups.

Possible a BM-21 MRL, I`ve only seen a poor picture of it, never seen it in action.

The YPG heavily relies on mortars, 12,7mm, 14,5mm and 23mm heavy machine guns mounted on trucks. The YPG also has a lot of snipers with a large collection of variouse sniper rifles ranging from Dragunovs to 14.5 mm Zagros.
