But if it receives a coastal vessel spawn, then it’s bound for a BR increase in the future. It would perform too well by farming pesky little motor boats. Average 3.3 boats and below cannot inflict reasonable damage on the HMS Spey with 40 mm Bofors guns and smaller calibers.
The M-802 used to be 3.7, and it’s now at 4.3 because of this.
The Flower-class corvettes at 2.3 are too good, especially in AB, where you can simply start farming motor boats in open spawn areas. So I want to avoid this change for the Spey.
Instead, I’d argue that it should keep its status as a bluewater vessel but have its BR reduced to 3.0. There are plenty of overtiered bluewater vessels that should have their BR reduced to 3.0, such as HMS Churchill, Commandant Dominé, and La Surprise.

From what I can tell (wiki)
Meteor F Mk.3 has a weaker engine (by 850ish kgf) but it is like a ton lighter compared to the Sea Meteor F Mk 3, which also carries less fuel.
But idk man, if you want meteor to 7.0 you make the post, I really can’t talk here, only for the 262. The meteors I kind of see them and I usually see them die somewhere else or by my hand really.
Both tanks should serve as counters to the Panther and Pershing. Moving the T-44 (FM) to 6.0 would also strengthen the Soviet lineup, while the standard T-44 could move to 6.3 and take its place.
I don’t know about the regular T-44, but the FM seems to get a fine K/D of around 1.6 according to statshark, so I don’t think that one should move down
Proposed BR change:10.3 → 10.0 or increase engine power to 1200hp
Reason: Since its been added to the game in 2024, the M60 120S has been a really contended vehicle. Its great fire power is much appreciated but the 1950 era slop mobility at 10.3 doomed its playing experience to be abominable. Its several modernized patton peers like the M60 AMBT and Sabra Mk.1 are performing much better than the 120S while both sitting at a lower BR.
Henceforward in order to make the BR of M60 120S more matching its performance. Moving it down from 10.3 to 10.0 would be a great change. At 10.0 the 120s is a tech tree version of the M60 AMBT with better firepower but worse mobility. Or alternatively, GDLS once proposed a 1200hp diesel engine for the 120S. (General Dynamics Land Systems AVDS-1790 V-12 diesel engine) With that brand new engine , the 120S gets a power-to-weight ratio of 21.35. Both alternations would make the 120S a more appealing vehicle in sense of reasonable BR and to better gameplay.
Also changing its name from 120S to M60-2000 would be cool as well. (feelin the millennial vibe)
A revelant photo material indicating the M60 120S has a 1200hp engine proposal:
It would also be a decent counter to the T20. The treatment of Allied medium tanks around this battle rating has always seemed inconsistent. Panthers sit at relatively low battle ratings, largely because many of the players using them don’t perform particularly well, while vehicles like the M26 and T-44 remain at 6.7 because the players seem to know what they’re doing.
The T-44 can certainly be difficult to deal with, but it’s far from invincible. This also isn’t an unreasonable request, especially considering the Tiger II (Nr.1-50) is being moved down to 6.3 and the IS-2s are also moving down in as well.
To be completely honest, neither the Tigers, nor the IS-2s should be moving down
Gaijin is just doing their usual “who cares about compression” changes
The Ho-Ri Prototype should move down to 6.3 as well. At 6.7, the Japanese medium tanks overshadow it, and the armour around the gun can be a bit weak at times. It has an excellent gun on an otherwise average platform. Personally, I prefer the Jagdpanther.
I’m being serious. Why do you think you hardly ever see that tank anymore? It’s because it’s nowhere near as strong as it used to be because you can kill it pretty easily now.
By the way, I’m talking about the much weaker premium prototype. Most people would take the Jagdpanther over the Ho-Ri. The only reason the Jagdpanther isn’t 6.7 is because of German players. That thing is amazing.
