The swedish HPK9A and the HPK9A (FA) are both way too high up in the arcade br, with 9.7, when playing them, they mostly match with ah64, mi24, ka 29, glynx and others. Most of them outranging the hkp9a in terms of missle range, missle speed, and varity of weapons, while most of them can carry pods for unguided rockets the HKP9A do only have gunpods, which are not as efficent in killing konvoi or attacking forces as unguided rockets, therefore playing those helis in pve is pain, also in direct compairing with helis of the same br the hpk9a do not justify thier br.
The loadout of the HKP9A:
the AH-6M:
the AH-1F:
the G-LYNX:
AH-1E:
OH-58D (china)
the a129cbt
Most eighter have FOX2 missles or rockets,
the hpk9a has nothing standing out to make up for those missing capabilitys in PVE, furthermore some 9.0 or lower helis might have less range with agms but on the other hand have way more diversity in making points

I agree somewhat, BR is too high and it should be lowered but not with the same reasoning.
first of all your comparisons:
11.3
10.3
10.3
10.3
11.0
you are not comparing similair BRs.
but here comes my comparisons
AH-1F is a great helicopter, its mobile, it has good loadout and a gun. also has thermals
it lacks target tracking and it has bad zoom and it is somewhat hot for an IR missile.
solid helicopter with fast missiles with great range and damage, with good gun
lacks auto tracking and an abysmal targeting system with bad zoom and is super hot for a stinger. also very loud and huge.
better than MI-24 in my opinion, it soaks damage really well and has all the advantages of MI-24 with some pluses like much better targeting system.
the swedish BOs are good helicopters but you have to play them right, but for the sake of comparison, this the 9.7 version should go down.
it is quiet and is small, has bad zoom but has thermals just like AH-1F and the same missile as AH-1F, also quite agile and cool.
but loadout is killing it. 4 TOW2s for 9.7 is too bad . yeah you have good missiles but so does AH-1F and you have thermals but so does AH-1F.
AH-1F can defend itself with gun and also MI-24. KA-29 doesnt have a good gun but it has one at least that doesn’t mess with your loadout.
swedish BO can go down with the current loadout that is 4 TOW2s it looks to have no RWR also. lower rate BO has 8 missiles tho ITOW. Z-11W has thermals at a lower rate with great zoom. only thing that makes it worse is low tier missiles and small percentage of worse mobility.
9.3 would be a deserved BR

the pve mode is played in arcade, you should change your displayed brs to arcade, usually it sits at autoselection resembeling your choosen mode (i have checked them ingame while makin the post
i talk about the pve mode, there are no ir missles aproaching the player
you want to use in PVP ground RB right?
His problem is in PvE, where you grind mods for PvP and there are essentially only 2 brackets 9.3+Lower and >9.3 where Bo-105s get mixed with Apaches and Kamovs.
Things like the AH-1F really don’t fair better than the Bo-105s btw, and the AH-6M doesn’t even get missiles stock.
doing my research i have found out that there are other helis suffering too
What about the BO 105, its the one that suffer the most in PVE, 9.7, only 6 atgms, almost no rockets to farm bases or light targets (like 106mm at).
You might try reading the topic, he is specifically talking about PvE, lol
