Reasoning: With the change of the Mirage 2000CS5 to 12.3, and the F-15A to 12.7, I belive this should absolutely move down in BR. Compared to other 13.0 vevicles such as the F-2, Su-27, and even the F-15, the Mirage 4000 lacks a competitive radar, Fox 1 missile count, or a Fox 1 missile as competetive as the R27ER, which is much more dominant. The Mirage 4000 is no longer competitive at 13.0 and faces much stronger vehicles that it doesn’t have advantages against.
Vehicle: B-52H BR Change: 8.7 → 8.0 (ARB) Reason: Yet another bomber way too high in BR. It’s getting feasted on by jet interceptor going twice its speed before it even gets close to enemy base. Flares and chaff are useful but did not nearly save it. Jets around 8.0 are a little slower but are still more than capable at catching up and killing the B-52H and it at least gives B-52H a chance to reach enemy bases.
Vehicle: Tu-95M BR Change: 8.3 → 7.7 (ARB) Reason: Yet another bomber way too high in BR. It’s getting feasted on by jet interceptor going twice its speed before it even gets close to enemy base. Flares and chaff are useful but did not nearly save it. Jets/super props around 7.7 are a little slower but should still be more than capable at catching up and killing the Tu-85M and it at least gives Tu-95M a chance to reach enemy bases.
It’s a lot of compression but again I’d rather not uptier a vehicle that’s is good at its BR to a state like the French EBR 1951 at 5.3 lol
I’d rather have a annoying strong vehicle than a useless one that’s only good in downtiers. Besides aside from a few nations most nations have vehicles that can deal with the sherman, I’m pretty sure my AB-43 can kill it frontally by hitting the breach but I think it took me like 2 shots to break the breach. Thankfully his gunner was dead but that tank also only has like 60mm pen
Pretty sure I’ve cupola killed a sherman with the AB-43
Would absolutely be a worthwhile trade. The R is fine enough as a SARH for close-range work, and the R-73 would absolutely revolutionise the gameplay loop for the Mig-29 to do what it was supposed to do. Right now it plays as a BVR missile bus except the missile bus only has 2 SARH and is outperformed by the flankers (who also have R-27ER) in basically every way. Give the Fulcrum its niche!
Aircraft: F-4F Early
Mode: Air Realistic Battles
Reccomendation: 10.7 to 10.3
Reasoning: A flareles phantom at 10.7 where most things you have to face get counter measures, and doesnt get its sparrows. having to face things like the MiG 23 ML is crazy when you have no way of defending yourself, not to mention there is a lot of things with all aspect missiles that can just bully the F-4F Early. Basically impossible to play at its current BR and in uptiers without being super lucky, because you are seen as easy prey.
Dang, I made one BR post for the F-35 and like nobody cares big rip, oh well small niche vehicles keeps losing. At least the Fronch AMX’s may stand a chance to be looked at and then ignored by the devs, (pls no snail they need changes)
Vehicle: Crusader II
Gamemode: All
Class Change: Light Tank→ Medium Tank
Reason: Cruiser tanks were the main type used for tank-on-tank combat and exploitation in British doctrine. Light tanks such as the Light Tank Mk VI and Tetrarch or armoured cars such as the Daimler, Coventry, Humber, etc were used for the reconnaissance role.

Rationale:
The S.M.79B is arguably the worst variant of the S.M.79 family at its BR. The removal of an entire engine and the offensive 12.7 mm are noticeable downsides that offset what improvements it does feature. It also isn’t capable of carrying a torpedo like the other two S.M.79 variants at 2.3, making its usage effectively limited to ground and air battles only. Moving it down would give some reason to play it, not that bombers in general are in a very playable state anyways.
i was hoping for both bombers to avoid 9.0-9.3 interceptors (namely the mig19, f106, f104, lightning, etc.) and jets around 8.3 are fast enough to catch up to the bombers
prop bomber around 7.0 (b29) should go down to 6.0 too but i dont feel like making the suggestion post
Rationale:
This seems to be a case where a vehicle is only at an unfitting BR purely because it’s so rare the developers genuinely forgot about it. For whatever reason, it’s placed at significantly higher in BR than H-75A-4 despite being the exact same thing with a worse engine. It should fall between the two French tree H-75 variants since it is, in the purest sense, an intermediate of the A-1 and A-4.
