Mot-Schützen Kompanie
The Nationale Volksarmee was regarded as the best trained of the Warsaw Pact client states, including both their NCOs and officers who were considered to be a cut above their lesser motivated allies. Constructed on a base of communist diehards and reformed ex-Wehrmacht veterans the NVA combined the traditions of a German Army with battletested Soviet doctrine. Armed with their older MPi KM (AKM) rifles the Mot-Schützen lack the added firepower of the under-barrel grenade launcher of their soviet comrades (reflected in the stats). Though they were known for a greater usage of RPKs in the SAW role (not reflected in the stats).

IRL
One of the smaller armies of the Warsaw Pact the NVA maintained a high level of readiness like their Soviet comrades in the GSFG garrison, ready to mobilize for war within hours. In the event of war, the NVA was to be placed directly into the 5 Soviet Armies of the GSFG, as opposed to their larger allies Poland and Czechoslovakia who would have their own Army size formations.
