F-106A air realistic 9.3 → 9.0
“waaah my steak is TOO juicy! my steak is TOO buttery! and my wine glass is TOO full!”
what a joke, if you can’t reach the par KDR then git gud.
Seeing as how I was a Russian main, and had tons of hours before getting the 220, and I do poorly in it kinda just shows it’s not as op as you and others like to cry about.
Especially considering I’m a very good player.
Those are monthly stats. Its top 8 by kps which is quite impressive considering it got more / much more battles than top 1, 2, 4, 5, 6, 7 vehicles with t20 being exception. Not as impressive as t20 sitting at top 3 while being publicly available and with 120-140k battles/month but still.
Again by the KPS or KPD logic, then the E100 should be an 8.3 with ease.
Yet it’s not, because like the E-100 the KV-220 is played generally by good players which will influence the stats a bunch.
Type 5 Chi-Ri

-
75 mm Reload Speed: 5.0 s → ~3.7 s
-
37 mm Reload Speed: 4.0 s → 2.9 s
-
Engine Power: 500 hp → 700 hp (Bug Report)
-
Replace Type 4 Kou (APHE) with Type 4 (AP) (Bug Report )
-
Correct missing 37 mm shoulder-stop stabilizer (Bug Report)
Rationale
When the autoloader was reworked semi-recently, the Chi-Ri received a knee-jerk BR increase despite the fact that its 1st-stage reload was nerfed to the same level as many lower power 75 mm guns (the planned Pz.IV changes would mean it can’t even outreload a tank with an equal power gun at 4.0). This can negate the advantage of its loading mechanism depending on the specific matchup.
At its current BR, a faster firing speed is more warranted. The 37 mm’s reload speed should also be buffed for consistency with the planned Ka-Mi changes.
Correcting the engine performance would also help it perform better at its new BR since it’s huge and can’t rely on armor. It would at least have the mobility to reach safety or take up concealed positions faster.

That is why I mentioned difference in amount of battles.
E100 has 16 times less battles than kv220
Chi ha kai td - 1066 times less
T20 - explained before, 4 times more
Kv1b - 1.28 times less
Kachi - 11 times less
Excelsior - 2.28 times less
T18e2 - 3.55 times less
Underscored vehicles also have lower brs with easier to deal with enemies which also has positive effect on their stats.
Vehicle: Yak-28B
Gamemode: Air Realistic
BR Change: 9.0 ----> 9.3
Reason: The previous battle change should be reverted, with flares and a bomb computer returned to the aircraft. Like many other bombers, it is creeping into irrelevance, even more than before. Still, when it previously had access to flares and a bombing computer, it had its niche as a usable aircraft, capable of some dogfighting and contributing to the team. In contrast, now it cannot even dodge an AIM-9B at full turn, and its bombsight is inaccurate at the speeds and altitudes it is capable of.

No it doesn’t. Most players don’t have access to those. They don’t count when considering lineups.
No. It’s really good at 9.3, bruh.
Let’s not further compress Air RB 8.0-9.0, please.
Aircraft: F-4J Phantom II
Reason:
- Poor maneuverability compared to other aircraft at the same BR.
- Inferior weapon systems compared to its competitors.
- Inferior radar performance.
- Lacks a modern and advanced HUD compared to many aircraft it faces.
- Heavier aircraft than most opponents in the same BR bracket.
Suggestion:
Reduce the Battle Rating from 12.0 to 11.3.
Additional Notes:
The F-4J Phantom currently struggles to remain competitive against aircraft with superior maneuverability, avionics, radar systems, and overall performance. Lowering its BR to 11.3 would provide a more balanced matchmaking experience and improve its effectiveness without making it overpowered.
I shoot there and shoot there and shoot there(it never works)
it literally is impenetrable to anything with less than 100mm of pen
Is this proposal for Air RB???
If so, holy skill issue, Batman.
It has PD radar AND HMD. It’s clearly not equal to the F-4E.

oh my HMD it’s certainly going to allow for some high off boresight sparrow shots
F-106 has HMD at 9.3

Or just move it up to 9.3 without changing a thing. Supersonics sub 9.3 are annoying as hell to deal with
PD radar and Aim-7F
Yeah no.
Not only does it completely destroy the F-4E at 11.3, but its not even the weakest 12.0 Phantom. Thats the F-4JUNK.

No, it’s not a skill issue, and there’s no need to act like you’re some professional player.
Compared to the other aircraft at its current BR, the F-4J is heavier, less maneuverable, and has inferior radar performance. That’s simply a fact.
At 12.0 it regularly faces F-16s, F/A-18s, modern MiGs, and other aircraft with significantly better flight performance and avionics. My point isn’t that the F-4J is a bad aircraft—it’s that it’s no longer competitive enough in its current matchmaking.
You’re free to disagree, but dismissing the argument as a “skill issue” doesn’t change the aircraft’s actual performance relative to its opponents.
None of those are 12.0 though.
Sure, compression sucks and you are outclassed in an uptier…
But compared to actual 12.0s the only thing stronger than it is the Tonkas, and only in BVR.
Now have a look at the F4JUNK that only has Aim-7E-2s

The F-4J is a fighter-interceptor, not a dedicated air-superiority fighter built for prolonged dogfights. Its strengths are long-range interception, radar-guided missiles, speed, and high-speed performance—not sustained turning.
At its current BR, especially in uptiers, it regularly faces F-16s, F/A-18s, and modern MiGs that have significantly better maneuverability, energy retention, and more advanced flight performance. In those matchups, the F-4J is clearly at a disadvantage if the fight turns into a dogfight.
That’s exactly why I believe its current BR deserves to be reconsidered.
Good joke.
It is fine where it is. Decompression could be useful.
Except for the F/A-18, you carry more radar missiles, especially the AIM-7F, than the F-16AJ and MiGs.
Why does this read like AI?
