You and your comrade could easily die from a single bomb (which happens much more often). I prefer using cannons, even when fighting heavy tanks, and you would still die. Learn to fight planes instead of complaining about them. Shooting them down is no problem at all, soviet players have become very good at this, and when playing against them, I have to use different tactics. (The Zuni need direct hits; placing a missile nearby doesn’t work.)

Vehicle: F7F-1 and F7F-3
Gamemode: Air Realistic Battles
BR Change: 6.3 → 6.0
Reason: Worse flight performance than the Ki-83 and Hornet Mk III. The energy generation and speed, while okay, are not strong enough to make up for the lack of manoeuvrability.

Vehicle: F-117
Gamemode: Air Realistic Battles
BR Change: 8.7 → 8.3
Reason: Lacks defensive armament. Is not too fast to be problematic at 8.3.

At least with bombs they have to predict where the bomb will land
or rockets without ballistics computer…
the ENTIRE issue with the vehicle is ballistics computer at a ridiculously low BR
These are your monthly statistics, based on which he should be reduced br. I’m saying this because in the hands of a mass player, the plane doesn’t really stand out, and only a specialized player like me is capable of showing high results.

Vehicle: F-89B
Gamemode: Air Realistic Battles
BR Change: 7.0 → 7.3
Reason: Stronger energy generation than the MiG-15bis whilst being able to regularly face props. Completely untouchable if played passively, even at its own tier, god forbit you talk about downtiers. Poor ergonomics and a pretty unfavourable matchmaker make the playerbase wide statistics seem bad.

Vehicle: He 100 D-1
Gamemode: Air Realistic Battles
BR Change: 1.7 → 2.3
Reason: Completely untouchable if played passively. Faster than most 4.0+ vehicles. Poor armament keep the playerbase wide statistics reasonable, but the flight performance is not acceptable for this BR.

Vehicle: Fw 190 F-8, Fw 190 F-8 (USA) and NC-900 (Counts as one suggestion since these are equivalent)
Gamemode: Air Realistic Battles
BR Change: 5.3 → 5.0
Reason: Worse flight performance than earlier Anton models, whilst being a whole 1.0 BRs above due to a moderate increase in firepower. Strong early game presence makes the playerbase wide statistics seem good, but the flight performance is not there. This is the same BR as a Ki-84 for god sake.

It has over 3 ground kills per spawn
Now when you take into consideration that not everyone plays it in grb…
Vehicle: P-59A
Gamemode: Air Realistic Battles
BR Change: 5.7 → 6.0
Reason: Extremely fast and extremely manoeuvrable. Jet thrust curve means it can hold much higher speeds whilst manoeuvring around the map than props can. Untouchable if played passively. Poor guns keep the playerbase wide statistics low.

Vehicle: AU-1
Gamemode: Air Realistic Battles
BR Change: 5.7 → 5.3
Reason: Far worse flight performance than the F4U-4B whilst being the same BR. Airspawn still does not justify being the same BR given such a huge performance gulf.
Vehicle: F4F-4
Mode: ARB
Change: 3.0 → 2.7
This Wildcat performs worse than its F4F-3 counterpart which is at 2.3. It is heavier and has less ammo despite having 2 more guns. All the P-40 variants have similar if not better characteristics at 2.7 and 3.0 just feels too high for this vehicle.

Vehicle: XF5U-1
Gamemode: Air Realistic Battles
BR Change: 5.3 → 5.0/4.7
Reason: Gimmicky with no manoeuvrability to speak of whilst also being pretty underpowered. Doesn’t even perform well on playerbase wide statistics - no idea why this is still the same BR as the P-38K.

Vehicle: JH7A, JH7A Prototype
Game mode: Ground realistic battles
Change: 12.0 → 11.7
These planes has no business sitting at 12.0 in ground rb when you are moving all of these other jets down in br… It was perfect at 11.7 with a big nice lineup and now its literally DOA due to there not being a 12.0 lineup

A-10 have 4, Wyvern 2.7. These statistics include bots, and if you played air battles on 6.7, you might have noticed hordes of Albatrosses killing bots.
Vehicle: Bf 109 G-10
Gamemode: Air Realistic Battles
BR Change: 5.7 → 5.3
Reason: A massive downgrade to the K-4 in terms of climb and speed (unless you are at super high alt) whilst being a side-grade to the already questionably BRed G-14. Smigol says it’s good but it isnt.

Vehicle: VT4
Game mode: Ground realistic battles
Change: 12.3 → 12.0
With the T-72B3A going down (good change) i think the VT4 should follow it, Its not a good performing vehicle at 12.3
