Ya the unit didn't change really, mostly the look and the name....

They gave it a rocket launcher because everyone complained that a sniper should not be a threat to vehicles which was the strength of of the marksman. So they change the name and gave it a weapon that fits with the the damage that it does to vehicles.

We will probably see a True Sniper ... a more anti-infantry unit in the future now that this one is no longer in that role.
