They can take more hits even if you're shooting them from behind their cover, even. Luckily you can make them stand up if you hit them with a grenade or destroy their cover, the really pro way is to hit the cover with a grenade that doesn't damage them because then they stand up and don't turn around.

It's also rather funny that crew-served weapons count the soldier as part of the weapon; he's the weapon's weak point, but he counts as armour rather than infantry and doesn't have a hitbox for his head. Still, not as downright bizarre as multi-part tanks counting their extra turrets as completely different vehicles or the AI thinking that it's playing a third-person shooter (it can't see the map and only uses LOS for each individual soldier, which is why you often see multiple enemies run past someone and then turn around as if they didn't know they were there).
