The latest changes to the grenade launcher make it quite a great kit.
In real life US and British fireteams the grenade launcher is every bit as important as the SAW to the squads firepower, I think it makes sense to make the grenadier a spawnable kit in the exact same way as the SAW.

I partially agree and I dont want to start a new thread about this but I think we should get the real SAW, sth like in vbf2 with the green ammo box and so on:

Partially due to the fact it's so limited and many people don't get the chance to practice.

i say throw it on the officer kit. it would keep the numbers low and hopefully in the hands of the more mature. it is usually a senior person in the squad that carries it in real life.

Not every Marine in the rifle company will carry this weapon. In the infantry units, only the Team Leaders in each squad carries this system. Each Marine is assigned a specific weapon. Initially the Marine carries the M16. The average Marine carries the M16 for a majority of his career. As they gain in seniority and experience (and a position is available to move into), the Marine would then move to a M249 SAW. Finally, upon reaching the position of Team Leader, they would be assigned an M203.

It would be pretty interesting and would make more of a tactical differential between Army and Marines if the SL had a UGL. Id say it should be tried as that is realistic
