Planned Battle Rating Changes (April 2026)

So the A-1H Skyraider goes up as well then? 6.3 with 40 Zunis.

no, not at all
i also play sweden and japan. ive started to grind russia only now

I know that radar isnt behaving like that every time lol, twas a nice kill

Im not saying its terrible just 4 bad or not fox 3 and no hms leaves it lacking and its so slow! I looked at all my rank 8 stats over the last few moths and even the harrier ends up with around the same kills to deaths. I never really looked before so I dont realy have an argument as I dont do any worse or better in it than any other jet.

Maybe the game is more balanced than we give it credit for or just rigged XD

I would like to see F7F-1 and F7F-3 brought back down to 6.0 for Air RB. 6.3 is brutal for them. If they need to be a higher BR for ground, that is fine and I think appropriate. But they are very bad at 6.3 air.

my guy wdym
my kd is literally higher than yours 😭😭😭

Neither of you two have amazing stats in grb to flex so this is pointless lmfao

Mode: GRB
Vehicle: Centrion Mk 3
Change: 7.7 → 7.3
Reason: Everything else found at 7.7 is a better pick to bring, giving the tank a lacklustre feeling for an option for a line-up. With the Cent 5/1(what I’ve heard is a much better cent) and Caernavon(medium in all but official/in-game classification), there to take

I thought the same, in the sense that on something like the Crusader III & Valentine IX the cannon is currently stat wise, the 6pdr Mk III.

While tanks such as the Churchill III & AEC Mk II is the stats of the 6pdr Mk V.

The Shot Mk 9 on the AEC Mk II currently pens 132mm, while the Shot Mk 9 on the Crusader III pens 122mm, which would match up with velocity being higher of the the 6pdr Mk V being a L/50 while the 6pdr Mk III being a L/43.

Without decompression, hell no.
The F-15s are not a cause, they’re the effect of the main problem which is the compression within the early ARH environment.

I agree with your suggestion as well.
If I had to point out one thing, the Type-5 30mm Cannon equipped on the R2Y2 received a patch around 2023 that significantly increased its damage against tanks.
Since this was a major factor in its BR rising from 7.3 to 8.0, I think it would be best to keep the BR as is, or if it needs to be lowered, around 7.7 would be appropriate.

As for the R2Y2 series, the BR in AirBattle RB should be lowered significantly.
I won’t submit a proposal, though, because it’ll probably just be ignored XD

reasonable, give it 3BM42 Instead

all the changes are really nice, specially the bmpt change’s though i still think it should be moved to 12.0 flat.

another thing is adding 2 extra aim 54 or fakor 90’s to the iran f14 is nice but i dont think the jet is gonna survive well at 13.3? but only time will tell

I think the F-14B and IRIAF is in a different BR bracket in sim where they are at the bottom of the bracket unlike the F-14A (US) which i think is at the top of its bracket but i havent played sim in a minute so im not sure

Still has irccm to defeat ircm jamming of the SACLOS. TOW is also saclos and can be jammed by ircm
This is because the guidance camera is looking for the IR signature of the rocket engine to issue commands to line of sight SACLOS irccm jumps ir frequencies until it finds a frequency the ircm isn’t jamming

Up until recently, the F-14A was at 12.3 but there was no 12.3 bracket, so the lowest it could play was 12.7. There is now a 12.3 bracket is so it can actually play at 12.3

Both the F-14B and F-14A IRIAF are at 12.7 where these is a 12.7 bracket and has been for a while. in fact, up until recently, it was a 12.7 bracket 50% of the time

id like to see the Premium SU-30MK2 and SU-30MKK moved up to 13.7 they feel too strong to be fighting against 12.3s also I feel the BMPTs could be moved up higher to 12.0 and they wont suffer much it does feel unfair to be fighting against them in the 10.7 vehicles that i just dont even touch that bracket anymore
overall however the changes do seem pretty good

Aircraft:
MiG-29N

Mode:
Air AB

Proposed change:
13.0 > 13.3

Reasoning:
Consistently the best performing aircraft in AAB by a significant margin, even outperforming both rafales. Vastly superior airframe to the MiG-29SMT with the same weaponry at a lower battle rating, at the very least should be raised to the same BR as the SMT (13.3) if not higher.

Su22m3:add additional countermeasures.
In the current game, the Su22m3 has no advantage over other aircraft with the same BR, and its speed and maneuverability are not outstanding, missile configuration is also exactly the same, but its countermeasures are significantly insufficient, which makes it lack opportunities to play in both ARB and GRB. Adding additional countermeasures that exist in reality can significantly improve this and make it more playable.
Syrian Su-22M3 missing countermeasure pods // Gaijin.net // Issues
issue has raised a long time ago, additional countermeasures do exist. The implementation in the game can directly copy the additional countermeasure model on su17m4.

9Ms are less visible than L-i’s, GR4 having an additional 320 countermeasures(BOL which should be buffed in effectiveness).
Also the biggest thing being HMS to easily acquire/switch targets, makes it worthy of a .3 BR difference to me. Don’t need to be firing an R73 to benefit from HMS especially considering how much of a brick the tonka is.

I am also biased and looking for any extra excuse to have a Tornado with IRCCM missiles that never see 13.0s

The ELC 901 is the subject of many historical errors. They might be correcting some but didn’t list it in the comments.
@SiberianSnakeSIB is responsible for a lot of reports on it. He might have some idea of what they could be changing with it to warrant moving it up.
