Planned Battle Rating Changes (April 2026)

I agree!

Affirmative!

Vehicle: F-16CM (PoBIT)
BR change: Air Realistic 14.3 → 14.0

Reason: Only 6 missiles regardless of which are absolutely not fit for the 14.3 environment. The PoBIT has the lowest missile count at 14.3, simply due to this it should not be at this battle rating. You’re unable to last long in a match without missiles running out and if an enemy decides to shoot your missiles down there’s nothing it can do. It is quite literally the worst 14.3 plane

This plane could easily go to 14.0 and be perfectly balanced.
AIM-120Ds are a decent missile thanks to GNSS, but they’re nowhere near good enough to justify putting this plane at 14.3.

Aircraft:
AMX A-1A

Mode:
Air RB

Proposed change:
11.0 > 10.7

Reasoning:
it is the same aircraft as the tech tree variant but with worse main armament and missiles that are comparable to the R-60 in performance, they are supposed to be more mobile sidewinders in comparison but they are extremely short range, flare hungry and lose most turning efficiency as soon as the short motor burns out of fuel.
there is no reason for it to be a BR step higher.

It it goes up, their sale will go down

statistics show the kfir is better than the su30 that die 10 sec into a match

F-16CM PoBIT
14.3 → 14.0

6 missiles at top tier max payload
120(iirc) CMs unless you want to cut down to 4 missiles for chaff pods
Nowhere near the radars performance of the SM2 or EF2K
Overall quite slow relative to other 14.3s and 14.7s
Some of the worst ARH missiles in game as of now

It should not be this high of a BR at all for a plethora of problems, but most notably even if you had a 100% hitrate (which doesnt happen with AMRAAMs), you can only get 6 kills, which you have to use while surviving with a pathetic number of CMs

Vehicle: Pantsir SM SV
Gamemode: Ground Realistic
BR change: 12.7 → 13.0
Reason: Unlike every other top tier SPAA the SM SV is extremely reliable for both plane and munition interception, has access to very high amount of missiles, outdoing most top tier SPAAs by a large margin, has extremely reliable and competent missiles with ludicrous damage model featuring 3500 spall fragments with 200m reach which coupled with the ingame mechanics creates a system that is small in size, capable of self defense from ground targets with the ability to shut down air threats and all their released munitions.
Any plane that is not 12.0 bare minimum should not even have the chance to see this AD system.

Only conclusion is that Sim must be perfection… :)

Personally, gonna be interesting how the super-slow Zeroes go (in Air RB) at the higher BRs.

Because it kills the premium flankers and was the last fun jet around the BR. Now they are free to stomp more. Everything is to make £££

Wyvern will be replaced with another new premium 4.7 jet that is going to be released to play the 4.7 ground as its now dead too

the zero is the hydrogen bomb here

Mode: Ground Realistic Battles

Vehicle: Turan III

Change: Ammunition

Reasoning:

  • It historicaly used the same ammunition as the Pz IV H, proven by historical documents and the reports on this were accepted already years ago.
  • The Pz IV H at 3.7 has apcr and a smoke shell in its ammunition selection and as the Turan III at 4.0 only really surpasses its german counterpart in mobility, i see no reason for it to not receive its historical shells at its higher br.
  • Knowing that ammunition is also treated as a balancing factor i would like to highlight the fact that as a minor nation tank placed into the Itallian tech tree the Turan III has the unfortunate curse of being played by seasoned players. As for many players, Italy is not a first nation, thus the K/D ratio of such a tank will be skewed compared to tanks of “main nations” that are the most popular choices for new players. Therefore i cant view its statistical performance as a reason to deny this tank its historical ammunition which is available to its counterpart, at a lower br.

Vehicle: both BMPTs
Remove ammo box from both vehicles.
It will force them to resupply at cap points. That will make them vulnerable and they’ll unable to camp hulldown at a single position for a majority of match

Agreed. Maybe I will crew it if once it is 14.0

BMPT, BMPT-72

Ground Realistic Battles

11.7 → 12.0/12.3 and give it APFSDS.

Reasons:

  1. It has way to good armor and firepower when fighting against MBT on downtier. Even with 11.7 BR it will sometimes play against 10.7 tanks. Most popular one is leopard 2a4 which has only dm23 (408mm max pen). And m1 abrams with even worse shell (m774 has 372mm max pen). That is totally unfair when players have to face armor package from t90m on leo2a4 and m1 abrams. Their armor and firepower just uncomparable with the bmpt.
  2. If it gets 12.0 BR it will face tanks with way stronger armor and way stronger shells, so it should get APFSDS belt to perform well on uptiers, the same one from bmp2m. Usual apds belt will underperform in fights agaisnt leopard 2a7v, strv122b plus and other best tanks in the game. And even 12.0 tanks is armored well enough to hold 82mm max pen APDS belt.
  3. It will get perfect premium setup, because t80u-e1 has 12.0 br and su-30mk2 12.3 br.
