More melee weapons - USSR

I have long noticed that there are not enough melee weapons in the game. Because of this, I propose to introduce more instances of melee weapons into the game, which will be in events and veteran boxes. For now only for the Soviets, but I will try to do similar for every faction.

Can you elaborate for why do you think so? WW2 is not medieval.

Because variety is good for the game. In addition, I do not suggest any fictional melee weapons, only historical ones.
