EMU #3015 was brought to earth with Dragon Spx-25 on August 19, 2022.But when and which spacecraft EMU #3013 was brought back to ISS? The suit was transported to Earth with STS-121 on 17.07.2006.For more details please see http://www.spacefacts.de/eva/e_emu.htm And what is about EMU #3018? Is it still on ISS?

Is it still on ISS?EMU #3013 was brought to the Earth with Cargo Dragon CRS2-24 on December 22, 2021.So now there are four EMU units: EMU #3004, #3006, #3009, #3013 aboard the ISS.EMU #3018 is still on the Earth.
And what is about EMU #3018? Is it still on ISS?
I asked JSC PAO Rob Navias about the status of EMU #3006.The EMU was returned to Earth.
Space Delivery Arriving Tonight as Crew Scans Eyes and VeinsMark Garcia Posted on October 27, 2022...Astronaut Koichi Wakata of the Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA) spent his day inside the Quest airlock working on spacesuit maintenance with assistance from Rubio. The duo cleaned the spacesuit’s cooling loops and reconfigured the suit’s components in anticipation of upcoming spacewalks.https://blogs.nasa.gov/spacestation/2022/10/27/space-delivery-arriving-tonight-as-crew-scans-eyes-and-veins/
Extravehicular Activity (EVA) Preparation Activities: EVA hardware activities were performed by the crew in preparation for upcoming EVAs. The Rechargeable EVA Battery Assemblies (REBAs) were installed into EVA Mobility Units (EMUs) 3009 and 3013, and a powered hardware checkout was performed to verify functionality. The EMUs were reconfigured on the EMU Don/Doff Assemblies (EDDAs), and the EMU Hard Upper Torso On-Orbit Replaceable Unit (ORU) Scrubber O-ring was lubricated to maximize on-orbit lifetime.Systems: EVA Suit IV Review EMU Swap
Systems:Extravehicular Mobility Unit (EMU) Full Water Tank Dump and Fill: Today, the crew performed a water tank dump and fill for EMU 3004. The EMU dump and fill purges gas built-up in the EMU Water Tanks. The crew also inspected the Extravehicular Activity (EVA) cords for Retractable Tether (RET) damage. Each RET cord must be inspected prior to EVA use.

@NASA_Astronauts Josh Cassada and Frank Rubio are preparing to begin a spacewalk today at 8am ET live on @NASA TV for solar array work.
Quote from: Joachim on 10/26/2022 11:17 amI asked JSC PAO Rob Navias about the status of EMU #3006.The EMU was returned to Earth.So there are only three EMU units aboard the ISS (#3004, #3009 and #3013).@Joachim and @marcdrnl: Thanks for clarification of the situation on this topic.
Frank thanked ground controllers for rapidly helping him assemble suit 3004 over the last 24 hours which leads me to believe it is replacing 3009...
EMU 3004 and 3013 are in use but dis someone know the suit assignment ? To make it simple, which suit is use by Josh and which by Franck ?
According to NASA TV for view: Rubio EMU #3004 so must used Cassada EMU #3013.
Astronauts Josh Cassada and Frank Rubio are suited up inside the station's Quest airlock as it depressurizes ready to begin a spacewalk for solar array work. More... https://go.nasa.gov/3UEbfOO
@NASA_Astronauts Josh Cassada and Frank Rubio set their spacesuits to battery power at 9:14am ET today beginning a spacewalk to prepare the station for new rollout solar arrays.
We love an office with a view!@NASAAstronaut Josh Cassada’s helmet cam captures a pristine view of Earth as he works in tandem with astronaut Frank Rubio to install an IROSA (ISS Rollout Solar Array) modification kit on the @Space_Station.
Incredible views as Cassada and Rubio work on installing the right struts for upcoming solar array upgrades. They will start cleanup and head back to the airlock after installing the right mid strut. 🔧🌏
Today’s spacewalk by @NASA_Astronauts Frank Rubio and @astro_josh to prepare the station for upcoming solar array upgrades officially concluded at 4:25pm ET after 7 hours and 11 minutes.
