The Sentinel 1 combat androids have been prioritized in production. The plan is to have them be a fairly common sight among AIF installations, to reduce personnel requirements while increasing effectiveness. Then humans can be used for more important roles, while duties that a super soldier cannot be justified for doing can have improved capability. Take for example, guarding an embassy or small time base, you wouldn't send a guy in an exo-suit for such a menial task, but a robot can be sent. And they won't get bored doing such menial tasks, so they're always ready.

Now on the battlefield, you'll say that they lack the imagination of human soldiers. That's the beauty of mixed companies, you can have your freelancer guys be spread out as officers of more companies and battalions, commanding groups of Sentinels. Combining the initiative of a human commander, with the greater numbers of combat androids.
