The article says they will be organic to each rifle platoon, which I'm sure means an arms room concept, i.e. The weapons squad can carry either the Javelins or the Gustavs, or a mix of one and one.

you will find this issued to US 425 - Rifle Squad - uClass 001 : slot 4 - Available 01/112 to 12/125

plus mech rifle sections, scout teams and even NG starting 2014
