 Maybe, but I'm trying to find most reliable references - and this one really looks well-researched

 Yes, but these six were used by MKKK (Manchu Air Transport Company), a semi-military airline, not by the Air Force (scan of page 171, that I've sent). I don't insist on deleting anyway, just to put it under a consideration.

 Well, in case of Manchukuo it is true 
 
 
I've never thought to deal with Manchukuo, and just came across a nice source on aircraft.

PS. the quoted Wikipedia page says also "The only bomber craft it had were provided by Kawasaki Ki-32 light bombers."
