Planned Battle Rating Changes (April 2026)

True!

Satire aside, besides pure turnfighting ability the P-51H is prolly the best prop in the game, its one of the only planes that can actually hang with a BF-109 in a stall fight with how much power it has

Zeroes get another unnecessary BR raise but I appreciate the stock AGMs for UH-1

Just looked it up, p51 retired in 1984

We need to change BMPT’s battle rating even higher as it is basicly a t90m with a better survivability and only disadvantage of bmps (from t90m) is limited ammount of ammunition against high armored targets.

Vehicle: AS90
BR Change: 7.0 → 7.7*
Reason: With its massive damage and blistering rate of fire, this has no business being placed alongside WW2 tanks. They are generally too awkward and cumbersome for the very brief windows provided by the 5 second reload. Even ignoring the rate of fire, the shell velocity is higher than the other SPGs at this BR.

*How high in BR this gets moved depends on where the PzH2000 sits. The AS90 is basically just a PzH2000 without a LRF, but I think the PzH2000 is too low of a BR too. If the AS90 is nerfed, the PzH2000 should be nerfed as well.

Why on earth is the centauro going up? Its basically a sidegrade to the 120 I variant. Same with the ELCs and C13, they were awful vehicles already

A6M in uptier is doomed, it will get easily catched up by 6.7 jets and A6M won’t even be able to catch up anything on this br even B-29 because it flies over 600kmph while zero’s 550 maximum

Every wheeled machinery above 11.0 is in a terrible position because tank chassis will be just better than wheeled one in every aspect on these BRs

Vehicle: PzH 2000
BR Change: 7.7 → 8.3*
Reason: Much like the AS90, this is also an oppressive menace with its blistering rate of fire, massive damage, and high shell velocity, though it is now complimented with a LRF . Fighting this in slow lumbering WW2 vehicles just isn’t fun and it has all the tools it needs to do fine in higher BRs. The 5 second reload is often too fast for those tanks to work around.

*If this is moved to 8.3, the VIDAR should be too. Other SPGs in this range like the PLZ05 and Type 99 probably would want a slight BR increase as well, though their lower RoF makes them less problematic.

it should be same BR as the mk24. the thing is incredibly good but held back by trashy USA mains.

skill issue. its very strong, moving it to 6.0 wont do much other than give it perpetual uptiers to the trainer jet spam at 6.7 more often

id argue 7.3 is fair for AS90 within current compression. its armour is a LOT worse as is its mobility vs the pzh2000

it is oppressive, all SPH are, none of them really should have been added

yeah the P-51H is better than even the Mk.24 but the Mk.24 is more “idiot friendly” since it can turn

And the LF Mk.IX just outclimbs everything, theres not much you can do if its a kilometer above and can still out turn you

Tbh, the Stug III G is one of the few low rank German tanks I think is actually a little overtiered. It’s not bad, but it doesn’t offer enough over lower or equal BR Pz.IVs. Now, a proper late production Stug III G would be ok at 4.0.
The current one would make more sense at 3.7 alongside the Pz.IV G if that got moved up.

Tbf it’s imo not that hard, it’s trade offensive weapons and turret armor, for the weakest turret, no 50 cal, for a minor hull weakspot and a bit more engine power, yes 500 is a lot but Hines I don’t notice it enough next to my other 3.7 shermans. I’d say 9/10 I die to a turret shot more than my hull but that’s besides the point. I definitely wouldn’t go as far as to say the III/IV is the best rank 3 but it’s definitely a contender for top 3. Chaffee is easily rank 1 for me. It’s a very strong tank.

XDDDDD no surprise its not p51h

Aircraft:
Kfir C.10

Mode: Air RB

I believe this plane should be kept at 13.0, in 13.3 this plane has many competitors that outcompete it in both missile loadout and maneuverability. Most planes in this BR bracket can carry at least two more active radar homing missiles with some even being capable of bringing four IRCCM missiles on top of that. I believe the Kfir C.10 fits in way better at 13.0 especially when looking at its peers in that BR such as the J-8F, JA37Di, and F-14B.

Re.2005 serie 0

  • Air Realistic Battles: 6.36.0

Reasoning: There is no justified reason why it should share the same BR as the Reggiane Re.2005 (VDM), which offers far better high-altitude performance due to its different engine. There is also no reason why it should share the same BR as the P-51H Mustang, as the P-51H outclasses it in nearly every aspect except maneuverability.

The Re.2005 Serie 0 suffers from poor energy retention and relatively low top speed compared to its peers. Currently, it is already a victim of BR compression, so this proposed BR change should be reverted.

Eh see if it goes down the Sturmi and Stug IV could take its place but gaijin would put Sturmi at 6.0 lol it’s probably gonna be a menace for sniping, I think most people play it like a psuedo heavy and play too close range with it which gets them killed. It’s a long range fighter and medium. It’s solid when played to its actual strengths, I think maps are it’s biggest downside. Rank 3 has so many tiny maps that don’t allow for snipers to fully utilize their kit imo, which is why I think it’s fine at 4.0 but again to each their own (also because the Italian 4.0 prem lineup is freaking crazy at farming SL for me and the Stug is my fall back vehicle if I need to bully the enemy team lol. For close range maps I play the sherman

What is the probability of lowering the battle rating of the F-104S TAF to 10.7–11.0 by removing, in some cases, even its useless AIM-7E Sparrows? Considering that radar lock is only possible at close range (4 km), is lost against chaff, and the radar has extremely poor detection capabilities; that the radar forces you to give up your nose-mounted armament; and that the AIM-7E Sparrow has poor maneuverability, it would not be much of a loss. By removing the AIM-7E Sparrows and lowering the battle rating, the aircraft could perform better as a dogfighter rather than simply farming bases in a single sortie. Moreover, this aircraft often faces opponents like the MiG-25, where its radar-guided missiles are fired at you, and you don’t even receive any warning about it…

from my observation less new players play italy than any of the three major nations, and Gaijin decides when it should get buffed or nerfed according to statistic unfortunately
