My equipment for an 8-man squad (it's the kind I use mostly, but for small UFOs I only take 3 people on a Skyranger) in a Lightning will be as follows (most of the time) :-

5x Laser Rifle
2x Heavy Plasma
1x Heavy Laser
Sometimes a small launcher w/3 bombs instead of a Laser Rifle
2x Heavy Plasma clips
12x Medkits (if in armour) - 12 because they do run out, I have 3 medics who carry 2 each and no HE
10x HE Packs - 2 for all non-medics
8x Smoke Grenades
16x Proximity
2x Flares
8x Stun Rods

It'll take on anyone and win. I also have a commando squad who are only armed with Laser Rifles, but carry 3x Smoke Grenades each, 3 x HE each and all wear flying armour. They can wipe out a whole battleship with no loss. Woohoo!
