Allows M3s Half-Tracks to be built from the Platoon Command Post; requires AEC or Bofors unlocked.
Same Half-Track as the USF M3.

If the paratroopers do not have explosives initially - this is a useless unit, all the benefits of parachuting will be useless. Yes, engineers - paratroopers sound interesting, but they have no real benefits. I would prefer the option with paratroopers:
- 6 people armed paratrooper Mosin carbine / rifle (better accuracy and rate of fire) or SVT-40
- Improvements: either two DP-27 or six PPSh-41 paratroopers (better accuracy and slightly longer range)
- abilities: RG-42 grenade, explosive charge
- 1st level of veteranism options: fearlessness (For the Motherland analog), 37-mm mortar-shovel / 50-mm mortar (paratroopers make a volley from 3-5 shells for ammunition)

This unit is useful as a sabotage because of the explosives: the destruction of howitzers, caches, etc. As well as elite infantry.

I just think the other concept could have been more creative and exciting.
Maybe even have Paratroopers in some other form.

I am simply point out an overlap between the suggested soviet airborne with 3 DPs and the regular Guards mentioning that tests conducted by Bizrock as an indication. If you do not trust the result I suggest you repeat them...

Hit the dirt should be taken into account since it used regularly and increases the DPS of the unit.

And what exactly would be the estimate performance of this unit? Ober level? Else normal Guard would probably be a better choice since the come earlier, have a snare and AT capabilities.

I think the DP-27 will be available only with the Mosin paratrooper rifle / carbine (which should be more accurate and quick-firing than the conscript Mosin, because of the paratrooper training) or SVT-40 (because the paratroopers had a lot of SVT-40), and PPSh-41 update not compatible with the DP-27 and will replace rifles.
