yea well…
it’s an SPAA.
M13/40 (I)
it_m13_40_serie_1
-
Arcade Battle BR: 1.7 → 1.3
-
Realistic Battle BR: 1.7 → 1.3
-
8 mm Breda mod.38 Reload Speed: 8.0 s → 3.5 s
-
Add Granata mod.35 (HE)
Rationale:
Most other nations get their first medium tanks at 1.3. The M13/40 (I) is already overall worse than the Pz.III F [BR 1.3] in almost every regard aside from post-pen damage and turret armor. The mobility is on the slower side, and the gun is fairly underwhelming in all regards except damage. I don’t see why it wouldn’t be fine at the same BR as the likes of the D2 or Pz.IV C.

Ah I see, wasn’t sure if it shared the same fate as the R-27s.
Aircraft:
J6K1
Mode:
Air RB
Proposed Change:
6.7 → 6.3 or 6.0
Reason:
While the J6K1 has very strong armament with six 20 mm cannons and additional machine guns, its actual flight performance does not justify a 6.7 BR. The aircraft has decent engine power on paper, but in practice its climb rate is mediocre for the tier and it struggles to gain altitude quickly compared to its competition.
At 6.7, it frequently faces aircraft like the P-51H Mustang and Spitfire variants that outperform it in key areas such as climb, speed, and energy retention. These aircraft can control engagements much more effectively, leaving the J6K1 at a disadvantage in most situations.
Although its firepower is strong, that alone is not enough to compensate for its lack of competitive flight performance. Lowering it to 6.3 or 6.0 would place it in a more appropriate bracket where it can better utilize its strengths without being consistently outperformed by higher-performance fighters.

Arguement to move the F-15C GE up.
Not the other two down.
The PoBit at 14.0 could be viable though, but the F-18E and the F that you failed to mention are more than capable at 14.3

Arcade Battle BR: 2.0 → 1.7

Realistic Battle BR: 2.0 → 1.7

47 mm 47/32 mod.35 Reload Speed: 2.9 s → 3.1 s
-
8 mm Breda mod.38 Reload Speed: 8.0 s → 3.5 s
-
Add Granata mod.35 (HE)
Rationale:
These two vehicles are functionally identical, and only a slight step up from the M13/40 (I), so they have similar rationale for a BR change as the earlier M13/40 (I). They are still slow and have poor penetration, with the only improvement being a bit better RoF and gun depression.
I propose a very slight reload nerf because a combination of high post-pen damage and fire rate could make them a bit too proficient for seal clubbing. 3.1 seconds is still very fast, but gives 37 mm armed vehicles a better fighting chance.

Hey, I’m so happy that the BMPT are getting nerfed !!
Would it be possible to buff just a little bit the A-7E Corsair II (US and JPN)? (like moving them to 10.3 for ground realistic battle) ?
Can we see in the far (or close) futur some 10.0 → 11.0 tanks for japan because we have nothing to play with the A-7E and Alpha Jet TH ?
no

Aircraft:
Mirage 2000C-S4
Mode:
Air RB
Proposed change:
12.3 > 12.0
This aircraft is essentially M200C-S5 without MAW and SPIRALE chaff countermeasures system, thus inferior to S5. There is no reason to both be at same battlerating. Either give it the missing modifications or drop the BR of it to 12.0

Japan doesn’t even have a 10.3 lineup dawg
M14/41

Arcade Battle BR: 2.3 → 2.0

Realistic Battle BR: 2.0 → 1.7
-
47 mm 47/32 mod.35 Reload Speed: 2.9 s → 3.1 s
-
8 mm Breda mod.38 Reload Speed: 8.0 s → 3.5 s
-
Add Granata mod.35 (HE)
Rationale:
The M14/41 is still a pretty marginal improvement over the later M13/40s. Despite being at 2.0, it’s still not outright better than the Pz.III F [BR 1.3], which is over twice as fast, similarly armored, has a punchier gun with access to HVAP, and has a larger crew. Lowering the arcade battle BR would let it form a line-up with its Semovente counterpart without facing some of the rather strong vehicles populating 3.3, which it currently can’t do much against.

Softstat change suggestions:
Give the He grenades to Rank I and II, with Overpressure and many unarmored or thinnly armored vehicles, especially if your tank doesnt have a coax (P.204 (f) for example) and most can be effective. Especially the Pz III Ausf.F and J which have the 5 cm KwK 38 L/42, the Sprgr.38 has 200g Fp.02 and Np.10 with an TnT aquivalent of 256g thats more than enough to Overpressure enemys.

Softstat change suggestions:
5 cm KwK 38 L/42 Aced Max Crew Reload Speed of currently 4.0 Sec lowering to 3.0 or 3.3 Seconds (the fastest). It is a good/mediocre gun, with good Penetration (80mm) at relatively low Velocity (685m/s), but even the fastest reload is 4.0 Seconds.
For comparisson the other guns of similar Performance and size have much faster reloads with, including 1 and 2 men turrets, while the 5 cm KwK 38 L/42 (on Pz III Ausf.F and J as well as Pz.Sp.Wg. P204(f) KwK), it also has a Dedicated loader (and on the Pz III Ausf.J even nerfed by a Ready rack):
37mm M3/M5/M6 guns 2.9 Sec
75mm M2 3.3 Sec
45mm 20-K 2.9 sec (on T-80 even 2.5 sec)
76,2 mm 1902/30 4.3 sec
76,2 mm KT-28 4.0 sec
4 cm QF 2 pdr 2.8 sec
4,7 cm QF 3 pdr 3.0 sec
5,7 cm Type 97 3.3 sec
4,7 cm Type 1 3.3 sec
4 cm MAVAG 41.M 40/51 2.8 sec
4,7 cm 47/32 2.9-3.0 sec
4,7 cm 47/40 3.3 sec
4,7 cm SA 35 L/32 3.0 Sec (with Dedicated loader, without 4.0 sec (1 man turret))
4,7 cm SA 37 3.0 sec

The F-15C GE is not an equal to the Rafale, Euro AESA or SM2.
The superbug is also way overperforming right now in turn, retention and especially acceleration by more than 50% in that.
I think that 14.0 is fine as it’s the same BR as the strike eagle and mirage with MICA

This has to be one of the WORSE BR Changes yes. Why is the Yak-3U now the same BR as a freaking A6M5. The Fw190 A8 is already not a “meta” plane at 5.0 so why does it get uptiered ? It can now face the P-51H against whom it cannot do anything. Why is the Re 2005 going up to 6.3 while it’s just a worse LF mk IX.
Speaking about the LF it’s actually a decent change but why move the Mk24 up against Mig15s instead of getting the Mig15s/sabers UP ?

Pbil m/40, 20 mm Pvlvkan M/40 reloadspeed from 1.0 sec to 3-6 sec (like other Auto cannons or more) it has a 36 rounds drum, in a small turret, barely overheats and can pretty much continuesly fire without stop.
The 2 cm KwK 30/38 L/65 on AA vehicles such as Sd.Kfz.222 (and Chinese), Sd.Kfz.234/1 and Sd.Kfz.140/1 from 6 → 3 sec reload like the 2 cm Flak 38 L/65, These Vehicles are dual Purpose AA vehicles, have a Dedicated loader next to the gun (unlike Pz II Ausf.C and F where he is in the hull and Needs to reach up) and only have 10 round Magazins unlike the 20 round Magazins on the Flaks. Effectively giving it 1/4s effectiveness (compared to the Flakpanzer 38(t)
