Planned Battle Rating Changes (August 2026)

Youre proposing this while some other german fan above you wants the Panther A to go down to 5.7 because there’s too many of them at 6.0 [ XD ] and for TACTICS

Vehicle: Panther A

Gamemode: GRB

Change: 6.0 to 5.7 and nerf to rank 3.

Reason: Is unnecesary put 3 Panthers in the same BR when G and F are performing much better and are clearly a improvement over the A variant. Is good to due Germany 5.7 is composed by just poor movility heavies and TD give them a boost to his movility and tactics.
Dear god this community

For the record, +1

I don’t know if anyone can see or consider my comment, but I think gaijin really should decompress BR8.0. As you can see in this BR range:
To-55 and T-54: same but To55 has a stabilizer
Ztz59 and ztz59a: same but ztz59a got a laser range finder
Leopard1 and of40: almost same role but of40 got a laser range finder
Df105 and clovis: same vehicle but clovis got a better turret, a 20mm coaxis gun, laser range finder
Magach5 and m48a2ga2: they all got dm23 , magach5 has ERA and m48a2 has more engine power. But one at 8.0 one at 8.3

Overpowered vehicles like raketenautomat and obj906

The same thing happens in BR8.3, most of the vehicles here only got one of the apfsds, stabilizer , laser rangefinder and thermal image. But some of the vehicles like:
Stb-2, type 74, type692a, vikers mk3, vijayanta, olifant mk1a got stabilizer and laser rangefinder at the same time
T55a got stabilizer and apfsds at the same time

In my opinion, 0.3 BR extension will fix these all.
Move all these 8.0 overpowered vehicles to a higher br and other higher vehicles all plus 0.3(with some weak vehicles unchanged like obj435 t62 or leopard 1a1a1)

Vehicle: Ka-52
Gamemode: Ground Realistic
BR Change: 12.0 —> 11.7
Reasoning: The Ka-52 has recently been performing quite poorly, especially in winrate, with it being the lowest for 12.0, furthermore, at 12.0 it doesn’t have it’s own lineup to complement it.
The only 12.0 ground vehicle is the Pantsir S1, excluding premiums.

It also doesn’t have any okay CAS aircraft to complement it.
With the Su-39 going upto 11.7, it would make quite nice lineup at that BR
(plz buff Ka-52)

as Smin stated, if vehicle needed such a high increase of a full 1.0 br step up, they would already be on the list.
As a result your suggestions are completly out of touch, specialy since some even include br increases over 1.0

What about no? CAS is a huge problem

They 100% need to work on decompression, but as you can clearly see by looking at their planned changes, they would rather compress the BRs even further

Tbh I don’t think any of the panthers are due for a lower BR. The Panther A is already a very strong 6.0.

Not the BR I was talking about.

There’s a long list of unbuilt/semi-historical vehicles in War Thunder.

If you’re gonna add a fantastical GWP modification to the TOG II, I see no reason as to why a more historically accurate version of the Ho-Ri can’t be added. Instead of fixing the problem, you are just sweeping it under the rug.

It’s not that you can’t. You just won’t.

What BR doesn’t have a CAS problem?

Vehicle: Su-30MK2 AMV/Su-30MKK
Gamemode: Air Realistic
BR Change: 13.3 —> 13.7
Reason: These aircraft are overperforming at 13.3. They are significantly stronger than their 13.0 counterparts despite only a 0.3 BR increase. Their combination of missile count and missile quality gives them performance that is much closer to a 13.7 aircraft than a 13.3 one.

With the IRAF F-14 already being moved to 13.7, there is little justification for keeping the premium Su-30 variants at 13.3.

No stop being stupid

Can’t have a realistic R2Y2, Ho-Ri or Panther II in WT :(

Of course they’re not, that would be insane, they should be higher if anything, I was just poiinting out how funny it is one person wants the Panthers to go down while other wants its prototype to go up to what comes out as the same BR XD

No

Again Gaijin prove the BS tactic seling premium and chance them in next patch XM-1 the example from 9.0 to 9.3 reason overperforming with actual 0 armor less that even scouts will get this same BR as T-72 with not only have Magic armor for it’s BR but better cannon , ammo and so on

What else 123K in Rus Coastal sure from rank III fo rank II but leaving other nations 2.3 at rank III why chance like this to make harder Dayily Grind for BP and Missions another BS chance pointless only to make harder the grind

IS-2 and Tiger II lower BR seriusly … pointless to comment

Derps again Lower BRs just Wth…

Arcade and Realistic 0.3 diffrence seriusly so in Arcade vehicles perform similar to Realistic this one is so long in the game comple BS thinking

Ho-Ri prototype so make years nerved to the ground and uptier as hell 0 fix years now

Yes the fearsome F-14IRAF with 6 missiles that can only be used on AFK players and a RADAR that is locked in the 70s.

But yes Gaijin it is clearly superior to the current day SU-30 premiums with their digital RWR and PD Radars

Gaijin is really missing a opportunity with that and they did modify the old German tank models. Every year have a calibration bring them back for a week plus some decals.

I have Ho-ri but I bet the next update dev blog is coming so we might be getting a replacement for them.

The Ki-87 coming down was a much-needed change, but why did the equally poorly performing Ki-94-II not lowered as well? Both of these are not very useful and might benefit from an interceptor spawn.

7.0-10.0 is kinda a dead BR for CAS.

There were only a handful of actually usable CAS planes in that BR range before the last major update.
