Planned Battle Rating Changes (August 2026)

Lol. But yea they had the BR ranges correctly back then, I look back and just think “what the heck happened?” And then it hits me: “MUH QUEUE TIMES!” > Gaijin screams in fake agony.

Vehicle: M26 Pershing
Gamemode: Ground Realistic
BR Change: 6.7 → 6.3
Reasons : Capabilitie wise its the Counterpart to the IS-2 (1944) and Tiger II (Nr. 1-50) (bouth of them also go down to 6.3 aswell)

Also it would fit much bedder BR wise with the other Pershing Variants and how one is the upgrade of another: 6.0 Shershing (M4/T26) → 6.3 M26 Pershing → 6.7 “Super Pershing” (T26E1-1) → 7.0 “Jumbo Pershing” (T26E5)

I fail to understand why the A-6E tram is getting moved up while only having aim-9Ls and laser guided munitions. Su-25 and Su-25K have all aspect missiles, yet they are buffed to 9.7. Paveways were nerfed a long time ago and i don’t see why we are trying to put them on a same level as fire and forget TV munitions. Don’t even get me started on skippers (which are supposedly air to sea missiles). If you’re moving the A-6 to 11.0, maybe consider giving it maverick missiles?

Same with the Churchills moving to 5.0 where they can encounter an is-2 for whatever reason.

APHE always meant it was going up. Gaijin didn’t just add that as a good-will gesture. They had to justify it moving up with its lack of mobility.

Vehicle: Object 248
Gamemode: Ground Arcade/Ground Realistic
BR Change: 6.7 —> 6.3
Reason: Since now the IS-2 1944 will go to 6.3, there is no reason for obj. 248 staying at 6.7. It is basically a improved IS-2 1943 in game.

At this point, yeah. It’s really not much better than the Olifant Mk. 1A other than armour, but the Olifant has APFSDS with 40mm more penetration/HEATFS/LRF.

Lower RAH-66 from 11.3 to 10.7; no countermeasures, no K-Hellfire missiles

As the tank was now known to have been not built, its not in any current plans.

I mean i guess, I don’t think that APHE is a good reason for the Churchill to be able to meet the is-2

There are frankly times where i wonder if Gaijin actually plays their game, because it is absolutely idiotic to move the A6M family up in BR. The planes already suffer immensely because of how slow they are, and now the best ones will be facing planes they have no hope of ever actually competing with thanks to how slow they are. I honestly hope Gaijin backs off from their decision to move up the A6M’s because at this rate they’ll be facing F-14’s by 2035

MB.157 is being moved to 3.7
I think that, in general, would be fair
However, despite being accepted as ‘Fixed,’ MB.157 has yet to have its 4 7.5mm installed. Whilst not as impactful as the 20mms its known for, it would help to preserve ammo and thus benefit staying power

a129 International p 11.0-10.7
There are no countermeasures or air-to-air missiles on 11.0. AGM 114B, even though the Apaches are getting reduced armor, but it doesn’t have one.

Vehicle: Mirage 4000
Gamemode: Air Realistic
BR Change: 13.0 → 12.7
reason: It’s underperforming as is, compared to the F-15A; the Mirage-4000 is both slower and has worse missiles. 13.0 is constantly uptiered due to the large amounts of players at 13.3 and 13.7, which leaves the Mirage very near unplayable at the moment.

F-104S TAF - air RB 11.3 > 11.0.
Compared, for example, to the F-4EJ ADTW, which is rated at 11.0, the F-104 has fewer weapons, inferior performance, a worse radar, and a smaller bomb load. The only area where it excels is straight-line speed, which is why the F-104S TAF deserves a rating of 11.0 - perhaps even 10.7.

Vehicle: F4U-1A (JP)
Gamemode: Realistic
BR Change: 3.0 —> 2.7
Reason: A clone of the F4U-1A line version from the American research tree, wich is at 2.7. Unlike the American, the Japanese also do not have the ability to carry additional weapons (bombs).

I am sorry, my 13.3 F-16 is not yet spaded, so I cannot take you up on that offer at this time. Furthermore Air RB is not a 1v1, but instead a 16 vs 16, so I am not fully sure of the relevance of such a duel. Also anything and everything requires proof, the idea of common knowledge is only valid to be brought up when all parties already accept it (in essence you use them in place of an assumption, an axiom in mathematical terms). For example, if a room of people all agreed that 1+1=3 and then you step in there and argue that in fact 1+1=2, then by your logic you’d be incorrect, which we should both be able to understand, is not at all the terms you are trying to argue under. Your claim requires evidence. Please provide some. And let’s please abstain from insulting large chunks of the community without proof in the future.

This one is actually true and important

Also 5 degrees less gun depression

You can use that tracking for 12.7 mg and shoot down drones tho. It gives separate lead for mg if you switch to it.

I just can’t take any tank seriously that doesn’t have a machine gun. Some maps you have to pray that your teammates can shoot bushes so you can actually see what the heck is going on.
