No. P47 is well worth the price. The weapon drops are good because the idea is to crew them with Pathfinders to get self-spotting team weapons.

There's just some things that are outdated, the weapon drop being 2 separate slots for example

I dont see anyone saying its bad. There's just some things that are outdated, the weapon drop being 2 separate slots for example
The commander is not bad I agree, on the other hand it overlaps too much with reckon which is is simply better.

I am not sure if target priority for the scoped garand is low health entities. If you have 2 scoped garands, the chances of targetting a low health entity increases.

Huh? You want both of them dropped at the same time? That's a nerf though.
spammable elite infantry

P47s are also way overpriced. I think all loiters should just be replaced with something else, but if they're staying p47s could use a slight buff OR cost reduction

attatch them to pathfinder beacons but not unlocked till they are now. boom. merged into 1 slot without being cumbersome to use by having to drop both. bonus of making paths more organic in the commander

Not really, Airbourne gives you cheap and great teamweapon accessibility, spammable elite infantry and an anti-vehicle loiter. Recon Support gives you long sight infantry (let's be real nobody uses airbourne paths) with the most broken arty, huge value combat group elite inf + pack howie, call in LV which is good for double officer builds and a fantastic anti support weapons off map.

Reckon is used more than Airborne and the overlap is there:
Pathfinders/I&R Pathfinders
Paratroopers/Paratroopers Support squad
Tech flexibility
and they both have off maps that although different are still off maps with Reckon being more cost efficient

Only clear overlap imo is on paratroopers. Paths don't overlap because IR Paths are often used to great effect while Pathfinders are very seldom used and much worse. Tech flexibility is kind of inaccurate since the combat group is more appealing for its huge value for cost than for allowing you to skip the full Captain tier, so I'd say there's a bit of overlap there but also a fundamental difference.
I wouldn't say that's bad, there's a lot of doctrines that overlap a lot, such as Strategic Reserves and Mechanized Assault for example.

I think this is mostly due to that health cut off for snipes. Iirc, JLI can crit on entities under 75% HP, gerands only under 40% HP.
Edit: also, I think the range profile of the other squad members helps the JLI to more easily get long range crits, as I think the Kar98s are better at long range than the M1 Carbines of the pathfinders.

Then also attach both Paratroopers and the P47 to the Pathfinder beacons: BOOM, problem solved. You then have 4 slots to make the commander into the USF version of Grand Offensive.
The P-47 rocket strike is bugged. The extra damage modifier it is supposed to get for damaging tanks is mistakenly and bizarrely instead applied to UKF emplacements. I made a thread on this some time ago and proved it did not function properly with tests.

No its not. The freed up commander ability slot is worth a lot more than the inconvenience of having to change your build order to accommodate for a new change (welcome to CoH2)
Cp3 360mp and 90-120munitions is not spammable. You're better off "spamming" the mainline you already have, which still has a snare and you can build from the very beginning
I like the idea of adding the support weapons to the beacon as a call-in.
Not sure what to add to replace them though. Maybe a smoke barrage like in heavy cav?
Not sure what the other slot could be.
Side note: I would use recon more tbh but I HATE getting a pak every time I want to get paras. Especially if I want to call them in behind the enemy.

Can you just explain why you don't like the idea instead of being kinda trolly about it?
Airbourne is NOT a bad commander.

Dropping both at the same time would be unwieldy and annoying. IMO the proposal in OP would be a better solution.
