Tank Hunters vs Naval Infantry

What I would like to know which are better in the 1.51 patch
Tank hunters, start out as a four man squad but after a vet2 it becomes a 5man squad, abillity to throw anti-tank grenades and able to dig anti-tank mines. (after the men against tanks upgrade)

Naval Inf, a 5man squad, can be upgraded to 2 PTRD rifles. Can throw molotovs.

I have the feeling that the tank hunters have better accuracy towards tanks etc while Naval inf has much better health.

Anyone an idea what their hidden stats are?

Cheers

Uh the Tank hunter can cloak when behind cover.

better in what? Anti tank duties, infantry killing? Baking caks? It's hard top compare thing when you don't know what to compare.

I think he means which is better against tanks :P

This is like comparing Shreked Grens with MP44 troops. What?!

Both PRTD rifles on both squads deal the same damage...

Navals are like a weapons specialist, much like Grenadiers because they can go with either anti infantry weapons or anti tank weapons. They're a jack of all trades, yet not really great to serve one purpose or another.

What are you trying to compare? Tank Hunters are going to be better at AT because of their nades.

Yes, sorry about that.
Indeed I want to compare these two vs tanks.
I know about Navals Multi-role, ok the damage remains the same.
Are their accuracy the same aswel? Because if it is, it's easy choice.
Thanks for the replies.

Yes the PRTD on each squad is the exact weapon, deals the same damage and has the same stats.

PRTDs on Tank Hunters come free-With Upgrade they get 2.
Tank Hunters can Ambush
Tank hunters can throw lethal AT Grenades
Tank Hunters cost 280 MP
Tank Hunters are non-doctrinal

PRTDs on Naval Infantry come for 100 munitions IIRC
Navals have SVTs to help with Anti Infantry but with only 3 it is not enough.
Navals throw molotovs which have little AT effectiveness
Navals cost 360 MP
Navals are Doctrinal, you must pick one doctrine if you want them

If you're looking for solid anti-tank measures I hope you make the obvious choice here....

Or even an IS-3 ;D ;D

But seriously to answer this guys queston on veterency I found this for 1.510 Naval Infantry:

Naval Infantry
* Veterancy 1 (7XP): received_accuracy_modifier -> x0.8
* Veterancy 2 (14XP): accuracy_weapon_modifier -> x1.2
* Veterancy 3 (28XP): damage_weapon_modifier -> x1.2

IDK about TH but if they have anything better for their vet then just chose TH for AT. Their name even says TH ::)
