This is--and has been since the old DOS version of SP--part of my rationale for letting the computer choose my force. I kind of like seeing what I've been given and making do with it. The random battle generator is one of the best features of the SP games, in my opinion.
Also, since I'm not an expert on every country's force structure, I worry that if I pick my own units I'm less likely to "get it right."
Sometimes when I play SPWW2 I'll buy my own units. I'm a fan of those oddball German assault guns like the Elefant, and throwing a force top-heavy with those against Soviet defenders is fun.
In the future with MBT I will be doing some scenario development. Soviet-Mujahedin, Ethiopia-Eritrea, Tanzania-Uganda, that kind of thing. So, I'll be spending more time with the editor.
