7th Parachute Battalion Airborne Squad, Supply Crate Weapon Choices

Hello to all! I have a suggestion/request regarding one of the USA/Britain’s airborne squads, the 7th Parachute Battalion. This particular squad was made available though one of Enlisted’s previous limited time events, prior to the game’s last major “overhaul”. One thing I have noticed about a few of the weapons in the “supply crate” options that are dropped with the squad, is that that there are now potentially better available “British” replacements that would better match the performance and aesthetics of the squad. I feel that considering this particular squad was made to be permanently set at BR(battle rating) V, I would suggest that a few of the weapons be changed… In particular, the Springfield m1903a1(for the recon package) be changed to the Lee Enfield No.4 MK1 (T). Regarding the Assault Package, I think that the Sten Mk II Is a lot more appropriate than the Lancaster, considering that this was originally a “Battle of Normandy” squad. My last change suggestion involves changing the M1 Bazooka for the AT Gunner Package to the British equivalent, the PIAT Launcher. I think they are both BR III, so shouldn’t be too much of a balance problem. I know that the Sten Mk II, is only BR I, where as the Lancaster is BR II, but I personally think that the fire rate and mag size make these weapons about the same as far as performance goes. The Main change that I would love to see though, is the Lee Enfield Sniper for the Recon Package. Thank you for your consideration and time regarding this suggestion! Sincerely, @OliveDrab1967.
