these squads are all armed with SMG. the Soviets has 2, the Allies has 2, the Axis has 1 but Japan has none.
add 1 premium assault squad for the Axis and 2 squads for japan, 1 event and 1 premium to balance each faction.
only BR1, BR2, and BR3 SMG
russia got the 88th Infantry Brigade with their Sichuan SMG, 88th Separate Infantry Brigade with their Sichuan Thompson.
allies got the 4th Airborne Division with their Sten Mk II (S), and New 38th Division with their Thompson 7.63
axis got only one the 277th Reconnaissance Battalion with their MP 40 Silenced
Do be so kind as to name a second full squad because as far as I can find all other squads have at least one often both specialists without that weapon.
Just few examples:
Erma EMP 36
TZ-45
Beretta M1918

are they all SMG? enginer and AT also uses smg? or only enginner using smg?
That still needs a separate AT gunner who can’t use the TZ-45.
Ohh, I see. I overlooked that.
My mistake.
Although I don’t know why anyone would prefer an AT soldier with an SMG at the cost of an additional soldier.
A squad composition featuring a silenced Sten and MP40 is an outdated experiment. And Chinese squads are just Chinese squads.
Anyway, the last thing this game needs is another event/premium German BR1-3 assaulter squads.
There’s like 10+ of them.
these squad has no AT soldier with smg
well the dev can convert on of those exisiting squad to be converted into one

If it would make someone happy, why not? But personally, it doesn’t strike me as particularly meaningful.
Plus, it’s not as if they would convert them. They would just start selling a new version of them. Because that’s what they’ve always done in the past when similar changes took a place.

I think assaulter squads with full SMG loadouts is easily the exception, and to be honest I am quite shocked the Dev’s made any at all. However, my feelings wouldn’t be hurt if all the premium and event assaulter squads came fully SMG decked out, but I tell you, I don’t see it happening. 
I’m still waiting on the Dev’s to give the premium medic squads they stiffed their fifth soldier, which I’d heard from Major McDonald the Dev’s were addressing. But, like most other things, I’m thinking that might just be some smoke blown our way. 
At least when it comes to the Japan, there’s always something needed because they’re lacking content in pretty much every area.

Currently the medic squad is kinda useless. If they add a new bot system specifically for medic bot that make automatically heal and revive nearby friendlies then the medic squads can be a good impact for a team
This squad layout better cuz you’re still getting 5 smg+ 6th soldier.
Might be an unpopular opinion but I prefer the 6 squad size with engineer having smg and AT having the ability to swap… I think he’s better with a rifle anyway.

True, however the Medic squads with four soldiers are more useless then the ones with five. They should all at least have the same number of troops, five. 
I use two of my US Medic BR1 squads more now since I supplied one the Swartz pistol, and the other has sawed off shot guns in the pistol slots for backups, so they are packing a little more firepower then most of the others Medic squads. The only other Medic squad I actually use is my German. I gave them Erma EMP 44’s so they carry more additional ammo then I can get out of the other Medic squads. To me, the Medic squads are basically just under ammo’d Assaulter squads. I would love it if the Dev’s would turn them into assaulter squads so they could carry ammo bags, but since that is unlikely to happen, I make do with ones I can so they aren’t wasted.
Kinda true but if im given an option to pick with AT soldier with Semi-auto Rifle or AT soldier with automatic weapon, i will choose the one with the automatic
