Is this so that the conscripts will be able to read the US weapons’ user manuals?

Partly (the article does refer to it being the language of NATO), but it looks to be more about joining the EU.

So EU taxpayers can stay paying off the massive debts to the USA.

So ban an established language in order to attempt to ethically cleanse a nation from the population and then introduce a virtually alien one from your western masters. This completely destroys all the arguments that were made to support the russian language ban.
