Planned Battle Rating Changes (April 2026)

War thunder players can have the best lineup in the game and still have crap wr, just look at German 6.7

WR doesn’t mean too much, unless it’s absurdly high (like BMPT at 10.7)

M1A2s are very much comparable if not better than 2A5 and 2A6

How did you come to such conclusion?

Vehicle X: 30.000.000 times played. K/D 1.0.

Gaijin: As it should be

Same vehicle in another tech tree: 10.000 times played. K/D 2.0

Gaijin: OVERPERFORMING!! BR increased by 0.3/0.7!!!

List of ammunition sweden currently lacks that should be added and doesent warrant a BR change.


Ikv 103 > Slpgr m/43 (APHEBC) (57~ mm Pen)

Pbv 302 BILL > slbrhpgr 95 (High Explosive Incendiary Tracer shell with Armor Piercing core) (50~ mm pen)

Pvlvv fm/42 slbrandsgr m/ 51 (Swedish minengeschoss)


And since i am karnitin75

The incorrect Lvakan 48 Ammunition

A Battle Rating Spread Of .7 Maximum. No More Fussing Around With Annual Battle Rating Changes Every Month.
Reason: Common Sense.
Que Times Dont Matter Anymore Because This Game Has Been Growing Exponentially Since Update “New Power” Came Out. So That Is Not An Excuse Anymore

F-104G/S/TAF - ARB

they need to reconsider their BR, the suggestion of user @Kumiko_Senpai seems reasonable, in any case the plane has very poor maneuverability and quite average armament, judging by the statistics and the ratings of other players F-104G/S/TAF etc. need some attention.

all three of the vehicles can be penned by shooting any point on the vehicle. The leclerc has such compact internals that its basically a one shot, however the 5s reload is stock, and doesnt require millions of SL and even GE

ariete gets the same reload as the abrams with a better shell. The crew comparetment is much more empty, the turret basket is infinitely smaller making it much more survivable, and the tank also has spall liners all around

the abrams has the massive turret basket making every. single. shot. completely disable the FCS, and any hull shot is guaranteed to also immobilize it, making it into a brick, while the other two can return fire

all you can say the abrams has in favor is the turret cheeks which unless youre miles away and facing directly towards your enemy (which he can one shot you through the breach, roof, ring, hull, etc), and he take such a poor potshot that he hits the cheek, any shell thats at a similar level to DM53 or M82A2, still has a chance to pen them

honestly i never bother to even look at the J15T that much but having 12 missiles seems much better than 6 and on a better airframe, albeit the 48 CMs with no pods is miserable in the survivability aspect

Wait what?

In what possible way is the Ariete better than the Abrams?

The only possible advantage I can think of is that the Ariete is smaller than the Abrams.

Armour, firepower, even top speed (when not using the addon armour) , the Abrams is better.

cant really comment too well on the Leclerc, but from what I do understand. they are pretty average at the moment, okay tanks. But not amazing

survivability, fairpower, and size

The Ariete is DM53 L/44. This has less pen than the A2 shells on the M1A2s.

DM53 L/44

M829A2:

Its not much, but technically the M1A2 has the better firepower

DM53 L/55 for comparison

Its only DM53 L/55 that has better pen and those are all 6 second reloads, even those that really shouldnt be like the CR3TD

Ariete’s turret cheeks dont provide any meaninful protection against top tier shells. It literally has no armour and should be classed as a light tank, not an MBT

It has weaker shells than the M1A2

and Ive already said its smaller

survivability =/= penetration, the ariete is much more likely to survive being penetrated than an abrams

My experience is that Abrams usually take 2 shells to kill. Where Arietes (if I ever see them) is one. And thats with the weakest shell at 12.7

Aubl 74 HVG reload buff 5.0 secs to 4.25 secs

Seafire LF III to 4.3 in Air RB please

the thing has hull ammo storage
Ariete > Abrams is the most drunk top tier take I’ve ever heard

Even then, I don’t see the M8 LAC as 1.0 material. 1.3~1.7 would sound more appropriate without the .50 cal. Though that’s assuming some of the current overperforming 1.0s go up.

  • Air Realistic Battles: 4.34.0
  • Removal of 2 x 20 mm cannons and replacement with two .50-cal machine guns (Bug Report).

Reasoning: Historically, the XP-55 Ascender was never armed with two 20 mm cannons and two .50-cal machine guns. The report I created cites a source stating that the XP-55 was equipped only with four .50-cal machine guns during construction. Along with another report already correcting its engine performance, this warrants a reduction of one BR step by replacing the 20 mm cannons with .50-cal machine guns.

Vehicle : Falcon
Gamemode : Ground RB
Change : 8.3 —> 7.7(Remove Radar)
Reason : Falcon’s historically inaccurate radar should be removed, and its BR should be lowered.
This would also fill the gap in SPAA units in the BR 5.3–8.3 range.
