Without an infantry officer to give them orders im not sure the scout sentinels are worth it and you are definitely lacking in cannon fodder to screen your tanks. Id drop the 3 scout sentinels for 2 more infantry squads to give you enough squads to still screen after the enemy opens fire.

Your engineers will help snatch objectives, but you will still really struggle to hold backline objectives + screen + advance for forward objectives. Personally in general I always run 60 as an absolute minimum + engineers but it looks like you really want to overload your opponent with t8 tanks. But ya as a minimum id drop the sentinels and beef up on some chaf, and id recommend dropping one more tank for more infantry bodies.
