Do engineers have special ability in blowing bunkers, etc? Or they are good at it because they are equipped with satchel charges? Any special ability (not related with equipment) for engineers beside clearing mines better and faster?
Another question is that do the FC and FC of a unit apply to all the weapons of the unit?

Well, looking at the engineering stores you can buy in the defence, you get barbed wire, mines, trenches and
Dragons
Teeth...
Engineers are not routinely equipped with satchel charges or flamethrowers. Those are kit. The engineer classes have no special bunker assault modifiers over normal infantry. They do clear mines/wire etc at a better rate, and can do so from the adjacent hex (if left facing the mine hex) at a lesser rate and can clear D/T obstacles (cannot recall if they need to enter the same hex for those) which ordinary guys cannot.
The Range Finder, Fire Control and Vision etc of a counter apply to all weapon slots of that counter. That is why an M1 MBT can shoot up grunts with its exposed commanders/loaders pintle AAMG with full benefit of the Thermal Imaging sights.
