Planned Battle Rating Changes (August 2026)

Theres a lot more than 4 playable CAS jets at 9.3. And if you struggle with stingers or iglas at that BR, then all I can really say is skill issue because it is braindead easy to dodge those. Most of them don’t even have a proxy fuse lmao

Hello, is there any chance av8b na can get aim9m? Or were those av8b+ only thing?
Seems quite weird that av8b na sits at higher br than su25t while having significantly worse arms, worse agms, worse ir missiles and less hardpoints. It has tpod but it doesnt help as much as 16 vikhrs, r73 or kh58u

the ground launched Igla overcorrects so much you can just pull 1 slight turn

Have you even played these tanks or do you just like to shit on german mains? There is more to tanks than their main gun you know. The M4 outclasses them in gun handling and T-34 outclasses them in armor. When all the maps favour CQC knife fighting, the advantages of M4 and T-34 reign superior to statistical penetration advantage the Pz.IV gets. They are highly specialized tanks made for sniping from afar that are forced into knife fights by the game. Leopard 1 is plagued with the same issue.

The explanation is the “ton of vehicles” was mostly vehicles that almost never get played.

I take it you have never played 9.3 CAS or SPAA?

Its not clear what the question is even asking here. If they required such a significant increase, that would be reflected on the table.

The AV-8B NA isn’t getting AIM-9Ms for balance reasons, same goes for the Harrier T.10

It’s just what it is

Buddy, if you struggle with manpads just admit your skill issue, Alpha Jet, Skyhawks, G91s, Migs and so much more are the most peak at 9.3 and literally are mentioned many times over several BR change threads to go up

I do both, actually. Stingers, iglas, mistrals, etc have very little ability to pull so just hold S for a second and they miss. They only work on unaware targets. If you are constantly dying to them, you need to stop blindly flying into the battlefield expecting to be able to press spacebar a few times for some free kills with no competition

thank you very much thats basicaly all we needed @Pangolin_Fan there you go

Considering the other guy thinks most SPAA have no proxy fuse at that BR (when it’s only stock Fim-92Es), I think you’re questioning the wrong guy.

I’ve shot down plenty of very aware targets with Fim-92Ks. Heavy bomb laden attackers and delta wings don’t fair well against a practically unlimited sink of missiles.

Right, I’ve never seen people use any of those planes in GRB, especially not the early F-5s, the Su-25s, the Su-22s, the F-111A, etc
I guess nobody ever uses the 155mm HE slingers, the Tiger 2s or the IS-2s either. That must be me hallucinating

I wonder, is it possible for the Ozelot go down to 9.3(currently 9.7)or no way because Stats say its fine?

If its for arb balance then yes I guess but in grb its just entirely different world compared to su25t. Its nowhere as great and 9m would be little push to help it vs enemy air especially 12.3/12.7 dudes

The only MANPAD that does have proxy fuse is the fim92k. ALL other MANPAD missile has no proxy

Aside from the Su-25, you’d be right. Who actually brings the F-5A/C or F-111A into ground battles more than once?

yes. and ive top fragged plenty of times in them at 5.0

can we stop uptiering MEDIOCRE japanese planes because people still:

@Smin1080p_WT what does the dev team (and especially people responsible for BR changes) think about the CL-13 Mk.4 effect? That is to say, when increasing BR of an already relatively unpopular vehicle makes it produce better statistics, not worse, and it ends up being raised in BR again back-to-back.

Do BR changes account for a given vehicle’s rate of usage and the populace composition of its players? Is there any procedure for reviewing the least-spawned vehicles in game and returning them back into circulation somehow? Or for making speculative decreases in BR to see if it’d make the vehicle’s stats increase or actually drop?
