How to get espionage battlegroup?

It says to buy it on steam on the bg selection but on the store I can only see fire and steel and coastal/ranger, its not available for merit?
Cannot see australian battlegroup either and when clicking on "buy on steam" it takes me to main steam page.
Nothing in the dlc page of the game and nothing ingame store, did they get removed from the game?

The UKF and DAK BGs are no longer being offered through the in-game store. These battlegroups were offered for free on a limited time basis while Relic updated CoH3 as a thank you for everyone's patience.

Moving forward, Espionage + Australian BGs will be available as a paid purchase through Steam. Relic is working on getting the DLC page up and this transition should reflect either today or in the next few days.

They wont be available for merit?

No, although Relic has stated they intend to add more items in the store for purchase with merit and warbonds in the future.

While having the additional variety of more BGs is nice, it's not required to have anything beyond the initial 3 for competitive play. By having this content become a paid purchase, it will also help Relic continue providing updates and new content to CoH3.

Thats not true, the australian battlegroup is a a necesity and the espionage battlegroup makes your entire army invisible both of wich are constantly being used in high level 1v1 2v2 games.

In the store it was clear both battlegroups were available for 0 merit discounted from 10000 merit, they should be available for merit even if they do release them as a dlc.

I can understand now why the reviews of this game are very bad.
