They can transport the HQ, but there are no real communication rules so thier extra radios and being able to talk on several nets simultaneously has no game use. All SP radio comms works like modern mobile phones (even in 1930), not voice radio networks.

Similarly, from time to time some folks come on the forum and bang on about how the Russians should have K model command tanks for the company HQ for "realism" or some such. However apart from duplicating nearly every Russian tank element in the game with a little less ammo carried for the (not modelled) second radio all that would do in SP is identify exactly which enemy units to kill first to your opponent. Because detecting a unit in SP games results in instant target identification right down to the exact sub-model.
