Default Mortors and grenade launchers.

One thing that I found very odd about RO2 is that though it has tanks and anti tank classes, there are no antitank explosives except for the satchel and grenad4e3.
Since RS is Pacific front I think you guys should have your weapon modelers to create both antitank launchers, as well as a mortar and hand mortar system, as the Japanese used quite frequently.
If I was better at coding atm I would do it my self and submit but I'm still going to college for it hahaha.

They really should include mortars, I remember they were quite fun to use in the RO1 mod Carpathian crosses.

I think that the Japanese actually used rocket artillery for anti-tank purposes on a limited scale (i just saw it in Letters from Iwo Jima...) Odd.. they used weaponry from ww1 but yet had rockets? (also look up the Okha flying bomb just for kicks- it was a manned aerial rocket with a kamikaze pilot in it; true Japanese class right there)

The M20 Bazooka and Recoilless Rifle (the two above pictures) are anachronistic for WW2

No, it began production in 1942, and only reached the front-lines in 1945. I think it may have been used in Okinawa, though. Apparently it was good against machine gun nests.

And yes, that is an M20. Wouldn't have been used in WW2.
