Penal squads flamethrowers

How is that not a weakness to you?

And if you want penal exclusive weakness-light armor. They got nothing on it.
Mortars will not arrive before 8th-10th minute because you need that field presence first, then either T2 or 120mm.

MG34 arrives around 3rd-4th minute if you tech med truck. You also have Kubel, which is excellent at harassing penals and forces soviet into enduring bleed until 2CP or getting M3, which is hardly a reasonable choice currently and becomes completely useless once kubel is dead.

Balance wise its not a weakness, since ALL infantry get suppressed. Its like you would say their advantage is the two leg they have, so they are not stationary unit. Its true, but the same can be said about all infantry units.

How many infantry have light armor except the shocktroops?

Mortars might arrive late, but they arrive with a smoke. LeIG doesnt, and again... volks are base infantry, penals are not.

I was wondering how come Relic decided to lock MG34 behind a tech level, for a faction that is most vulnerable against suppression, while giving USF a t0 OP mortar. Where is the logic behind this?

Not really sure where you're going right now.
You're trying to say that combined arms is more effective then single unit spam?
Also, pair of Leigs will make a short work of any support weapon, it still have heat seaking shells.
