Default Re: Whats in a bunker?

Depends on what kind of bunker you have in mind.
If you look in the OOBs, you find bunkers based on antitank guns or field guns (or stripped tank guns), but these are heavy structures made of reinforced concrete.
On the other hand you find hastily-built structures made of wood logs, sandbags, cinderblocks, whatever expedient.

Which case you consider will influence the kind of weapon you put in there, i.e. I wouldn't put a stripped-down tank turret behind just sandbags, and in an armored casemate you can put better than LMGs.

One thing you may want to keep in mind is the recoil and/or backblast of your weapons in relation to the size of your bunker. Typically, check if your LAW B can be fired indoors (US Army FMs are pretty clear on this). That's the reason why you will not find recoilless rifles in bunkers in the game (or IRL), but if you want, you can give them Javelins without being over-the-top.

If your question is purely OOB-technical, I think you can use any weapon except for the air (classes 11, 16 and 17), mine (class 15) and probably naval (class 10) weapons.
Unit class 1 'Fortifications' can be a lot of things, including entrenched positions for artillery, AA weapons, ATGMs...
