Best Uses/Practices for: 2 man LMG units

Give me a Tankhunter rather than an LMG every time.

For example Aug 43 vet Russian stats -
LMG - cost 8. Can scout. Weak firepower = 30 at 40metres, 28 at 100metres.

TANKHUNTER - cost 13. Can scout. Strong firepower = 100 at 40m, 22 at 100m.
Can kill tanks and scythe down infantry at close range (its smg-armed)

So for spending just 5 points extra, you can have a Tankhunter which can not only scout like LMG's but can also blow away tanks.
PS - Although the TH doesn't have binocs, he's still got good eyeballs so who needs binocs anyway?
