Its very weak doctrine, one of the weakest in SU.
Dshk AP rounds are just *3 penetration, and its like 13.5/9/4.5 with them, if I remember correctly. Mg-42 AP rounds are +9 penetration, so it will be 11.2/10.8/10.4, and double damage. Dshk still have better damage, but longer burst and better far penetration from Mg-42 make the difference.
M-42 is strange, low price, very low penetration, low damage, it is okeish vs halftracks and even infantry, but I would gladly spend some more MP, like 40-60, for penetration buff, something like 120/100/80.
Tanktraps are kinda useless - map dependent and you need a lot of time to build them like tank blocker, its very rare tool. The are good like small green cover, common US tactic, but SU already have sandbags on conscripts.
