What's the reasoning behind this change? My issue personally is this is a constant with KU. They are always trying to swap out one job for another thinking it would solve the overarching issues within the subunit. Is there any particular reason y'all need this or anyway you feel this would impact KU as a whole?

So the objective for this change is to shift KU towards more of an CQB Assault Unit. Recon at the current moment is in an awkward spot, see their objective is to do Reconnaissance stuff (Obviously) but the problem at hand is the fact that 21st has a subunit dedicated that does Intel Gathering, Forward Observation, and general Reconnaissance work thus making KU Recon redundant. The idea for KU Support and their role within the unit ties in with my goals of turning KU into a Spearhead Unit, with each member armed to the teeth with the Westar, Medics keeping us in the battlefield, and Supports increasing our survivability with their armor drops, all of which synergizes with what we currently have. With that being said, I believe Recon (ARF) is taking up a slot when something that could impact the battlefield could take it's place, as the job only entails you with the DC15X but you already have one of the best weapon on the server so what's the point of using it. The grand scheme of things is creating an identity for KU being a Shock Unit with a couple small changes, sure we may be already be portrayed as one but I'd like for us to at the very least impact the battlefield even if it's small. 

My bad if I got a little side tracked here and there.

+1 Much needed for the progression of KU

+1 Overall a pilot makes more sense then an arf for a shock unit

[Tec]

KU has consistantly been under developed and left behind. I understand the hesitance, but there is a reason KU has been requesting job swaps for ages. It's needed, our loadout of HVY, MED, ARF/JT has been awful for a long time.

Switching jobs is definitely not THE solution for KU, however it's definitely a start to giving the unit a new identity.
