The biggest commander that needs to be put in order is obviously the Guards Airborne Forces. Here you need real airborne skin, parachuting animation. And I am sure that Relic can easily select several people for this, it is definitely easier to do than x64 and from the fact that a few people will fix the mess of the Relic of the game, Relic will not go bankrupt. Otherwise, just remove to hell with this mockery of the Airborne Forces. Just make a commander with Shock Troops and T-34-85 and everyone will be happy.

Buffs

Partysans - SMG ones just need somethin to be overall better and both versions should have lower reinforcement costs and upkeep

Airborne guards should have something that makes them worth it over normal guards

Nerfs

AT OPwatch - same as skillplanes across the board, a 10 to 20 sec delay before it starts acquiring targets

Maybe light KV1 cost increase

Partisans could do with being made more like stormtroopers.
Buff them a little, raise the price and give them a PPSH upgrade and Schreck upgrade.
This frees up a slot to add something substantial for late game. Maybe something thematic like a captured German tank. Unlikely though.

Tank Hunter Tactics
Put the PMD-6M mines into a bundle with Tank traps
Replace the ML-20 with the B-4

Soviet Industry
Bundle together Crew Repairs and Repair Station (hell maybe throw in conscript repair too, might be unbalanced). Put PPSH or SVT upgrade in the free slot to represent the arms industry

Replace rapid conscription in Conscript Support tactics with the Commissar cause this ability sucks unless reworked

The Guards Airborne need to be more like Paratroopers, give them higher damage resistance and make their PPSh considerably stronger, but with a munitions cost.

Similarly, Assault Guards could use a target size reduction, they're actually the easiest to Guard's Squad to hit since they have full target size.

In order to better balance the power of the SVT Crate Drop, since the PPSh are not very strong on Penals when they arrive, I was thinking reduce SVT from 4 to 3, reduce cost accordingly, and have it 1CP earlier. That would help alleviate the apparent OP-ness on Conscripts (which i disagree is an issue, though it is a decent upgrade), but make it more appealing for Penals or Combat Engineers (who can use it with a flamethrower). With this, revert the nerf to Conscripts last patch.

PPSH buffs. Make the upgrade more like the OKW MP40 one or the UKF Assault Sections?

Buffing partisans to be like storms isnt imo best solution. Just reinforcement dirt cheap and give additional model with vet so they wouldnt be redundant after first fight.

Let other factions steal or equip SVTs from Soviet Airborne.

I don't know if it's actually possible though, can non-Soviet units equip SVTs?

They'd need to give SVT animations to every squad in every faction, and in some cases (USF Riflemen) SVT's are actually a downgrade from their default weapon.

Give Riflemen PPShs then.
