Planned Battle Rating Changes (August 2026)

The main reason why the Su-7 won’t move down in BR, even if Gaijin was fine with letting those things bully 8.0s

Yup. Even in “fast” base bombers, there isnt really anything you can do to beat an Su-7 to a base.

Slow ones… You are screwed

pretty sure it mentions a vertical mount for that tho, so this one is wrong techinally.

With the exception of last month, the Su-7BMK (also 9.3) consistently kept a top 3 stop in the average SL per spawn leaderboard
The only difference between the BMK and the B is that the BMK has two more pylons to stuff either 2 extra 250kg bombs or some extra rockets under

So, it is safe to say that the Su-7B won’t be going down in BR lol

Yup. it moved up with a good reason

Exactly, it’s unfair that this fighter has such a high BR; almost all fighters at 11.0 are better than it (or maybe all?), and F-104S have 11.3 BR… Nonsense.

What’s more, the F-104G/S lacks EEGS and IRST; reports on this were accepted two years ago, but to this day they still don’t have the full capabilities they had in reality… It’s really sad how neglected and forgotten these fighters are :(

PS: And where are those iconic extra fuel tanks on the wingtips?.. :(

Oh no, a mid tank get’s a gimmick that rarely saves it

They aren’t only iconic, but also very necessary for gameplay because F-104s eat fuel extremely fast, that makes them barelly playable on EC maps. This issue affects ASA the most since it’s placed at higher BR.

I would say ive never hd this problem before but that may be because im the only guy crazy enough to climb in an ASA. Rocking around at mach 2 15km up is the only way i like playing it. simple too fat to mp.

I believe that the A6E TRAM should stay at 10.7. USA does not have a 11.0 lineup to use this in ground RB. The A6 does not even have fire and forget munitions this requires you to stay on target much longer risking your aircraft. Compared to something like the buccaneer with man in the loop at a lower BR is reason enough to keep it at 10.7

i wouldnt have anything against an 11.0 M1 abrams if it would mean i wouldnt have to use M774 (hell id even take a marginal improvement of M833 over 774)

that thing is honestly completely viable until 4.7 to use

i’ll also point out that the SU-7 (or any of the mach 2 capable planes at 9.3) can just outrun the 9Bs, especially if it’s from a sub sonic, unless you are quick on the draw as it passes in an overshoot. missiles that will start to catch up to it does not appear until the later versions of the IR missiles like the 9J which is usually found in 9.7 plane, though i am not sure if an 9E can catch up to a Su-7

Experience with the FGA9, nope, 9E won’t

Possibly. But does it really matter?

It’s got 2 x 37mm guns and that was what prototype had.

figured as much and yeah a good SU-7 pilot is a bitch and a half to deal with, especially if are like me and love flying the japanese F-40

Yeah, only thing Ive really been playing at that BR recently is the Jaguar GR1 at 9.7 with 9Gs and I can barely do much more than just annoy them

the T-2 can do it since in a dive the 9Ps can reach to about 4k away
