For a long time, Urban Defense Tactics of the SU faction has had that one black sheep, called Armored Vehicle Detection. I say make it a true Urban Commander and replace it with Conscript PPSH's (or in a more extreme measure, shock troops or partisans with ppshs).

Armored Vehicle Detection needs a buff, not a replacement

Actually, i don't understand the role of the vehicle detection. Germans usually don't hide their tanks from Allies. It will be interesting to see PPSh instead of AVD.

Detection is handy when you aren't too sure which direction german armour is coming from, so you pop it and re-face your AT guns accordingly (or plant mines in that particular approach if you have time).
Then when they eventually do pop up, they lose the element of surprise and get hit by AT fire, snares from conscripts.

It's pretty handy if you're using it offensively as well to spot the location of rocket arty hidden somewhere so you can sac a T34 to take it out.

I used to use this quite a bit, but haven't played with a doctrine that has it for a while.
I think it's quite useful for the reasons stated above, you can intercept armour, or even just know what you're up against (light/heavy).

It might get some more use if they reduce the Muni cost for it, so it's not competing with the expensive booby traps and various other upgrades.
