**During the update, the F-15I was moved to 13.0 in GBR because it received the Spice series IR-guided bombs early, while its airframe, radar, and engines remain nearly identical to those of the F-15E. At the same time, the F-15E — despite having its weaker ground-attack loadout (but stronger air-to-air loadout) moved to 13.0 in its own tech tree with the F-15Kai — still remains at 12.7 in GBR (the same as the original F-15C), while retaining its superior weaponry and engines. As a result, its top loadout with up to 26 IR ground-attack munitions creates an overwhelming level of suppression. I would therefore like to request that the F-15E’s GBR be raised to 13.0
Man f14iraf is dead as hell now lmao there is no way its equvilent to the f15c and f16c because players choose not to notch the fakour lol.
Anyways love another round of br changes where 0 decompression hits toptier essentially.
Heja II; ARB 2.3->2.7; good climb, good retention, excellent maneuverability; great guns, at 2.3 it’s a sealclubber. Possibly 2.7 is even too low.
P63, C5, and A10 give them late-war belts or lower BR by 0.3
Yak 3U; ARB ->6.3, it should have the same battle rating as P51H as it has comparable performance.
Tempest MK V; ARB 5.7->5.3, its engine lacks power to compete with other very strong planes at this BR.
Ki 61 Otsu Kai, ARB 4.7 → 4.3; In many aspects it is a lot worse than Ki 100; it doesn’t turn well, it’s got a weak engine, it’s slightly faster but has lower acceleration, while it sits above it in BR.
Changes to Spitfires and Zeros are unnecessary, they are balanced enough. Zeros are so slow they can be ignored by faster planes.
honestly it was already fine with 4 Fakours back then (imo), but they bump it to 13.3 just by adding extra 2
German RB Ground BR’s:
- StuH 42 G: 3.0 up to 3.3. This thing is a low tier menace. Along with the M4A3 105 and SU-122. This isn’t just about balance, this change is also about new player retention. If new players are constantly getting wrecked by overpowered tanks they’re going to drop the game. You could also give it the missing ammo, see spoiler below.

Reload Speed: 5.0 s → 5.9 s (Revert Change)
-
Add Pzgr.40(W) (APBC) Bug Report
-
Add Hl.Gr.38C (HEAT) Bug Report
Rationale
The long barreled Pz.IV’s are in a decent state at their current placements without any reload buff. Compared to other mediums at their BRs, the Pz.IVs have much higher performance guns, so it makes sense for them to reload a bit slower than other medium tanks that uses shorter cartridges.
I do think the similar reload buff applied to the StuG’s makes sense however, and helps further distinguish them from the Pz.IV variants they share BR’s with.
Instead of a straight buff to the Pz.IV’s, I propose expanding the ammunition loadout to include the Pzgr.40(W) and Hl.Gr.38C rounds.
Pzgr.40(W) is an APBC round with a flat nose, granting it very good angle performance, similar to Soviet APHE, which would make it a good counter to various vehicles reliant on sloping and troll angles. Since it is ballistically similar to standard Pzgr.40, it would have a much flatter trajectory than Pzgr.39, making it a solid option for sniping.
Pzgr.40(W)
Hl.Gr.38C is the same top HEAT round already found on most vehicles with the 75 mm Kwk.37. It was produced for the longer 75 mm guns too, but is arbitrarily excluded in-game. While the Gr.38B isn’t used very often, the Gr.38C round has potential utility as an HE round alternative that still offers decent penetration when needed in a pinch (it can frontally pen the hull of a T-34 STZ from any distance).
Hl.Gr.38C
Neither of these rounds would be too game changing, but I don’t think more options ever hurt.

Vehicle : Leopard 1A5
Gamemode : Ground Realistic Battles
Change : 9.3 —> 9.3(No changes)
Reason : I cannot hide my surprise at the possibility that the Leopard 1A5 might be downgraded to 9.0.
Why would a vehicle equipped with the DM33, LRF and TVD be downgraded to 9.0?
I strongly urge that the current 9.3 rating be maintained.

Ho-Ri Prototype
GR
6.7→6.3
The Ho-Ri Prototype doesn’t have the armor, protection, or mobility to match other 6.7 tank destroyers. At 6.7, it’s simply outclassed across the board.

do people get a refund for their time and money then
Vehicle: YAK-3U
Gamemode: Air Realistic
BR Change: 5.7 —> 6.3
Reason: Yak3u’s flight performance and weapons have surpassed Spitfire LF9, and BR4.7-5.3 aircraft are difficult to fight against YAK3U, except for the Soviet LA-7 series.
Vehicle: Su-30 MKV/MKK
Gamemode: Air Realistic
BR Change: 13.3 —> 13.7
Reason: 6xR77+4xR73, good flight performance and abundant missiles, NATO 13.3 has no aircraft with the same performance.

Yeah, ive given it a few tries of late too, and I just cannot come up with any argument as to why it must be 13.0. Even the argument that “AMRAAMs are too good” just fall apart given that AMRAAMs are terrible when fired below about Mach 1.2, let alone mach 0.8/9
Maybe if BOL was really good. Maybe if you could run BOL + Twin Aim-9M. Maybe if the Harrier FM was really good. But right here, right now… Just not worth ever using at 13.0. Would much rather be in the Tonka.
Bro smoked everything he had at once to post this
That is absurd, you want that thing to be at su33 br

Scary bit, Its Gaijin and a soviet premium aircraft. They might just do it, especially given that vehicle performance basically never actually matters
Gotta love how the T18E2 has stats almost as crazy as T20 but is getting ignored.
i have to fire 4 of them off just go get 1 kill anyway as i seem to face somewhat competent players who actually know how to notch. Which is fine in an f16 or mig 29 less so but in a harrier im out of luck as i have no guns due to NEEDING to get rid of them to have an even somewhat reasonable loadout.
MAYBE if they allowed bol with dual 9m rails it wouldnt be so bad but to even get this thing 13.0 worthy it needs dual 120 rails which i dont think it ever got or had access to. same with the dual bol rail.
Much much less battles tho
Not many people have it therefore its not a problem and also doesnt hurt the marketplace value. Some devs may have this as a coupon hoping to sell it someday or something i dont know.
Vehicle : Chieftain Mk.10/900, Khalid, FV4030/3

Change : Change APFSDS to L23A1(No changes to BR)
Reason : It has been confirmed that the APFSDS known as the L23, currently implemented in the game, is a fictional projectile created by Gaijin and does not actually exist.
The L23 should be removed and replaced with the L23A1.
Furthermore, I do not believe that replacing it with the L23A1 will result in a change in performance significant enough to warrant an adjustment to the BR.

I can usually average around 1-2 kills ,maybe, in a downtier. But its hard work.
Yeah never had
Never actually did IRL… but… BOL was added right before it retired, and there is no reason it couldnt do it. Gaijin own official stance was “if it needs the buff we’ll add it” and then like everyhting to do with a British vehicle or a Harrier. Just buried the report.
