Planned Battle Rating Changes (April 2026)

decompression doesnt work, as seen in game modes like naval, there arent enough vehicles for it to actually do something meaningful. unless there are hard blocks to prevent certain battle ratings from facing eachother unless someone brings the lower vehicle up, it wont work

*I forgot to use the reply fuction first time post this

You’re absolutely right about there being a jump in vehicle effectiveness, but I have a few nitpicks.

The P40 is only barely viable at its current BR. The only reason it’s not 3.0 rn is because some community manager supposedly fudged the penetration values of the HEAT round so that its 100 mm instead of the historical 70~80 mm. I don’t think it needs to go up with everything else.

The Chi-Nu is also pretty underwhelming at the moment. It would be a fine at 3.3 if all the other 3.3 tanks went up.

If the T-34E STZ and T-34 (1942) go up, I think the T-34 (1941) could actually stay at 4.0, just don’t give it access to BR-350B and make the reload similar to the Model '40. It’s kinda weird anyways that the Model '41 is at the same BR in RB as an up-armored version of itself that also gets more ammunition options.

It does and it has.

it doesnt and hasnt, all “decompression” does it create a bracket where only problematic vehicles can face eachother

Scimitar in GRB going up to 9.0 while the other 4x bullpup/nord slingers stay at 8.7…

ASB (SIM)
F-20A (Tagershark)
12.7->12.3

The aircraft is worse than its competitors in terms of combat rating. Fewer rockets than most competitors. The maneuverability is worse than that of competitors. An RWR that does not show the type of target. After all, this is a third-generation aircraft with a new engine installed.
The F/A-18A, which has more missiles, better maneuverability, better radar and RWR is at 12.3.

ASB (SIM)
MIG-29 (9-12)
12.7->12.3

All early fourth-generation US aircraft are already on 12.3 (F-14, F-16, F/a-18). And the red team doesn’t have any.
27-ER does not pose a threat when the enemy has a RWR indicating the type of target. Don’t forget that the MIG-29 is an airplane with a disgusting flight model, a bad radar and the worst RWR at the level.

(I suggest you look at the Marder III H, above average pen for a german 75 and a 5 second reload at 3.0, i’d say 3.3 or 3.7)

Nah he should move the SAV 1946 up to 5.0

105mm cannon at 3.0 with a 240mm pen heat shell (ignore the slow reload unreliable pen of the heat shells, reload, mobility and armor. Also the 63mm pen starting round.

If HEAT shells are buffed sure
this is one nice way to buff all shell types

Marder III H being 3.0 while the Na-To is 3.3 is certainly something. The Na-To gets a better sight, and the rounds are faster with better post-pen, but its worse in every other regard.

Nah should just be 5.0

Is that I really don’t see much swedish TDs that aren’t Sav.20s . Its 90% of the sweden low tier playerbase just Sav.20 abusers?

A better question is why would you want to play the worst TDs known to man at a higher BR than they should be?

Seriously nobody plays them because they are insanely niche and unfun compared to other nations

Like I genuinely mean this but I would rather play Italian TDs and Japanese TD’s at their own BR or higher than the 4.0 swedish ones (aside from the PVKV II)

Aircraft:
Beaufighter MK 21

Change:
Rank 2 to Rank 3

Reason: Great air to ground abilities, with 2 single drop 1000lb bombs, and 4x 20mm cannons and 4x 50cal, great for strafing light tanks or unfortunate aircraft. While still being somewhat able to manoeuvre for a 2 engine attacker.

The mossie but better lol, such a shame they can’t load less fuel to be actually nimble

yet I have a higher WR, team position, and avg score.

This is because you play for kills and think you’re good at the game.

I win because I am good at the game.

To be fair the Skyraider is much slower.

Made those adjustments. @Pheonix_RX01 said similar things about the Swedish T-34 and since they’re the same vehicle I did both.

“Finnish” and technically it also has domestic AP rounds but gaijin hasn’t added them given the values aren’t publicly known or at least I don’t know them.

Could bolster it but still not worthy of a higher BR
