What is your favorite recon unit?

As Russians, I use the AT rifle team if I have any, as they are usually useless in their intended role! Otherwise I prefer a 1/2 squad. I can't say for sure, but I think they are a little more resilient than a sniper or LMG team. At least I can hope for a few turns of spotting/recon before the 1/2 squad is routed/eliminated compared to the sniper or LMG.
