Japanese OOB omissions.

My mistake when I say v 7.0 had the missing Jap units I mean v 7.1. The removed formations are Formation 217 "Rifle Platoon D", and Formation 218 "Rifle Platoon E" these make up Formations 211 and 212 "Infantry Co G" and "Infantry Co H" which no longer appear in the game. Best Regards Chuck

Yes, those formations are only in dos v701. The only explanation we can come up with was there was a big gap in time between v701 being released and work starting on winspww2v1 with all of that time in between working on getting both games converted to windows and MBT released first and when the work started on cleaning up the Japanese OOB for WinSPWW2v1 we inadvertently used a V7 copy of the OOB as a starting point instead of a v701copy and that is why those formations are missing. They are now back in and will appear in the next patch. The GL, however, stays a GL integrated into an infantry squad. This was done with a number of OOB's using weapons like that and it's not going to change.
