I see an opportunity there. One more BR step down and Gaijin will have zero excuses to give F-8P and Lavi.
Simple really, the SU-27 is just better at 13.0, but it can’t move up unless there is more decompression.
I have to ask this, but can anyone tell me how the MiG-29A is equal to the F-15A? R-73s are long overdue IMO now that even more 4th gen aircraft with IRCCM missiles will be at 12.7.
There also needs to be much less reliance on pure statistics because it leads to situations like this. It’s unfun, unbalanced, and not good. Just please give us some reasoning for BR changes beyond “our statistics say…”

But there are worse planes than the F-15A at 13.0, so why just single the F-15s out?

FA.2 harrier at 13.0… what are we even doing anymore guys. Get people who actually PLAY the game to make the balances, not little timmy buying his first jet and plowing it into the ground 1/3 matches.
Worse I think is the Mirage 2000D-RMV, it’s much heavier than the fighter Mirage’s lower down than it, relies on a heavy gunpod and only has 2 Magic 2 missiles. But somehow Gaijin thinks that should be the same BR as the F-15’s with 4 AIM-7M and 4 AIM-9M/AAM-3.

I would agree, but the RMV is destined to get Mica IR at some point, so at 12.7 would be better suited with that when it eventually comes
Well I’ll be at the farm at that time, can’t take the 3rd week off in a row lol
I can see Gaijin adding a RMV No.2 (unfoldered obviously) just for the Mica.

As a ru main, simple solution is to make 15.0
To move up everything after 13.0 up 0.3
Which allows far more decompression, in returns helps F-15As stay at their current level without having to move up or down.
Moving su27s → 13.3
13.3s ->13.7
13.7->14.0
14.0->14.3
14.3->14.7
14.7->15.0
Rather than having to move them down to 12.7s.
But thats out of the question because actual decompression generates less money for the company simple(grinding etc)

Gonna be real, yes it can lmao. Even in my Su-33 im fine playing at 13.3 because the matches are still filled with noobs. Plus R27ER basically plays itself, brain activity is essentially null and void when playing the 13.0 and up Su, they all need to move up
When in doubt R27ER then R27ET for safety.
Because Gaijin operates purely off of statistics and the F-15A’s are quite bad.
Case in point: Even the infamous turd that is the MiG-29SMT has better stats than the F-15A.

have they updated the br changes on the spreadsheet or not this time around?
Yeah this is a far better solution and what they should have done, but this is Gaijin we’re talking about =)

In a sense it’s in the same boat as the Mirage F1 - kind off. It gets 2 very very good missile while the rest of the kit is mid - from other missiles to flight model. I think, if we look at lower BRs, the mig29 is not a plane that should go down. It’s the entire BRs above that should be decompress.
But then again, with the F15 and some F16 going down, that’s kinda going against my point

Will we have time to give feedback again or is tomorrow just the announcement of what has been decided for this BR update?
Especially regarding 12.0 UK Phantom situation and BR inconsistency for the Tornados
These are the updated changes already after feedback.
