how when everything above 10,7 shrinks together and below get spreaden out???

Why is J-11A still the same BR as Su-27SM after decompression? It’s all around a worse plane with worse radar/RWR which is crucial for notching missiles at top tier. Also, putting J-11A at 12.7 for GRB is completely unreasonable as it has no viable ground pounding ordnance whatsoever. You’d be limited to CAP while other jets as capable as J-11A also have the option to play CAS.

It doesn’t. Various changes occur between 10.3 and 13.7.
Some aircraft around 11.0 get decompressed, some around 12.3, some around 13.0, so on and so forth.
It isn’t just one size fits all, there’s a lot of decompression that occurred with that 0.3 addition for 10.3 - 13.7, and that’s progress. Whether more is needed for that range or not, we’ll see.
The biggest change is they’ll finally be able to decompression 9.3.
My feedback is focused entirely around simulator battles.
I’m particularly happy to see the F-14B and Mig-29 being moved down to 12.7. I’m looking forward to that particular matchup. :)
I think the Su-27 and J-11 should move down to 13.0. At 13.3, they never get a break away from ARH missiles, and they both have old radars and old RWRs, giving them an extreme disadvantage in that meta. Given that the F-15A and J are also at 13.0, along with the new Harriers, I think the early Flankers are a hard requirement to offset their NATO Counterparts.

i understand some of the changes but why mess with the J35xs, it literally has barely any flares and no rwr and why move the f4C makes so sense so it got no flares, and the a10 in how slow and barely can defense fly why move it

They clearly can and do all the time.
Thats great. Still doesnt help it when it has a 9L or R-60M on its way.
This doesnt really work as a blank statement. I’d take the F-5C without any missiles over the SHar FRS.1 anyday of the week. Context matters. In fact, i’d probably take an Alpha jet with flares over the bucc with 9L’s for dogfighting.
Either way argueing with you is pointless, you aren’t stupid but you are bone headed.

Really when I looked at the chart there’s a couple of change that I would not agreed upon.
F8E should be at 11.0, it is so toxic adn straight up OP as it stands; moving it to 10.7 in this new patch is essentially allowing this situation to go unchanged.
Mirage 3C is going to be a problem if it’s at 10.0
J35XS should not be moved up to 11.3, it should stayed at 11.0 instead, it does not need that extra br, it’s not OP.
Same goes for F4C
Mirage F1CT moving up to 12.3 (same BR of Mirage2000) is some incredible nonsense to me. Does that improved RWR alone make up for one BR compare with regular F1? I doubt, not to mention F1CT paid for it with less gun already.
F4EJ kai should’ve probably stayed at 12.3. It’s good but not OP to be exact, 12.3 feels like a right br for it, being the same of F14A. going to 12.7 this thing will have some unfair competition from F14B.
And on top of all these, top tier is essentially unchanged which imho need decompression even more urgently.

yea sure buddy
New stock missiles is a nice change. Currently trying to spade Hungarian Gripen and it’s almost impossible to get a kill with Sidewinders in AIM-120 world, while assault air arcade is banned for 13.0 aircraft, for whatever reason.
Decompression is overall a good thing, though some changes are very questionable (for example why F-104G gets 0.7 increase?).
Netz to 13.0??? The thing has ZERO radar missiles… what a joke
Gaijin just freaking hate f104s for some reason, I really can’t see why all F104s are “highly regarded” by the BR.
And isn’t it funny that italian F104S ASA is at a higher BR than the tornado F3.

F4D is also acceptable, just no reason to have it as the F4C anymore gameplay wise
good idea, terrible execution.

F4C goes to 11.7 ?? A plane with no countermeasures
Kinda the same with Su-22’s/17’s they have 6 countermeasures

Yea great in F-111A with aim 9B and little of coutermesures you can get F-14s,F-16s and not talking about other nations. Great decision… same F-105D (witch is already pain in ass without flares).
And oh there’s some aircraft that I did not see, the JA37C, shouldn’t it be moved up to 11.3 too?
Mig23 MLD lower BR as Mirage F1C and Saab J35XS without RWR still facing F-14A. Typical Gaijin nonsense balance changes.

they changed 2 planes… FFS, move 35XS back down both in RB and sims, that thing will be subpar on its current BR even after changes

10.7 actually. My friend told me it was a consideration because of the A2G capability. It’s too good being a bomb truck and will eat away this niche for any other bomber around this br.
I would say tho, moving it to 10.7 will greatly sacrifice its AA capability and it is a pain for ppl like me who use it for air to air. If it really is to be moved to 10.7 then CM should be granted for it, or else 10.3 is okey as it stands.
