Aireborn Guard are useless
Posts: 24
PPSH cost 0 ammo and unblocks 3 abilities (smoke, 2 combat tactics).
DP28 cost 100 ammo, and unblock NOTHING
Is there an explication ?

The explication is that 3 DP28s are excellent in pure combat stats so they don’t get extra utility on top of that.
PPSH with abilities are much better, and cost nothing

If you want ppsh squad, why have you picked airborne in the first place?
DPs are excellent when they need to hold area.

If you want Guard DP28 squad I think it's better to take ISU152 with guards

Except, regular guards can't self heal, can't shoot their heavy weapons on the move and most importantly, that doctrine can't equip cons with strong early game weapon and regular guards are weaker vs infantry.

With DP28. It should give slow tank ability, but it doesn't and I don't understand why Aireborns can get DP28 for 100 ammo and no new ability.

So your theory is that Airborne Guards are useless because they do not have an ability when upgrade with 3 DPs?

It sounds boring but this is the reason.

Aireborn Guards with DP29 seem a bit useless.
Also in the description of DP28 they speak about tank slow ability, but in fact there isn't.

Not really, ab guards with ppsh are fragile only good at close and will have hard time even going against pg's. 3 dp's are better as they can sit back in cover and deal ungodly about of damage to the enemy.

can't shoot their heavy weapons on the move

As far as I know they've always been like this.
Tbh I'm not sure if you can ask for more for a soviet squad. 6 man squad able to self heal, fire their LMGs while moving and can call in their own (albeit mediocre) air strike plus a grenade.
Not only that, their on the move dps ratio with their lmgs is far better than paratroopers or commandos.

This. Pretty much PPsH guards are extremely situational, since they have pretty mediocre RA for CQC squad. Even vet3 squad can't get near survivability of vet 0 shocks (which is equals to 0.66 against small arms). But I don't complain, since it is an option along LMG guards.

I was talking about regular guards not being able to.
AB ones do.
