and other scout group just got from paradrop and it have supression 10 which CANNOT BE RALLIED this is pretty weird ? why cannot i rally my scout at all ? is it like "immobile" tank ? <- this one went now to supression 8 and could rally it was temporary but still i wonder...

No save game attached, so just guessing:
1) Your unit has 50% or more casualties, and so is getting the auto-suppression for being a depleted element. That has been there since Steel Panthers V1.
2) Your unit is in a flamed hex, perhaps?. It will get suppression, and possibly casualties. Small, damaged units (like inf-AT teams) in flame hexes have a bad time, and if out of control will likely eventually rout. That has also been there since Steel Panthers V1, but we toned the fire hex casualties down 5+ years or so back.
3) Rallying is
not guaranteed. If you are not in command radius (or radio contact, which is not guaranteed even if you have one) of a superior HQ and only have a rally chance of say 20 then you will only get a 1 in 5 chance of rallying from the auto-suppression that being depleted will bring. Look at the "Rally Chance" command statistic of the unit
before any attempt to rally.
4) Friendly wrecked vehicles within a few hexes add to the base suppression. Is your depleted scout team, which seems to be out of C&C, also surrounded by destroyed friends?.
Sometimes, a badly-beaten up infantry unit will need you to either march its platoon (and/or company) HQ right up to it to establish C&C, or an APC to go pick it up and bring it back.
