Planned Battle Rating Changes (August 2026)

i very much disagree with this. The panther A is pretty much identical to the panther G in gameplay, with it only being very slightly worse armor wise, and the panther F is a sidegrade, sacrificing the trolly panther turret for better optics, reload, and a rangefinder. If you put the panther A to 5.7, you would also have to move the panther D down to 5.3. I agree that the panther G and F are better, but it is such a small difference that it isn’t worth them being different brs

Yes

Gaijin should realize that while yes, CopyPaste is unavoidable, keeping trees unique is a draw for players and will encourage game growth. Why should I play any one tree if they’re just gonna spam Pattons, Leopards, and American SPGs?

B-66B
Naval 9,0 to 8,7.
You can play it in naval RB, because max BR is 9,0, but not in naval EC, because max BR is 8,7 here.

Oo yea I guess the Ayit the other A-4s the Yak -130 all the bullpop carriers, the Albatross are non existing?

I recommend attaching the outstanding bug report by @Ghostmaxi to your BR proposal as a compromise to make up for the BR increase.

Soon the A6M5 Ko will meet the Su-30MKK in battle.
The fact that those Su-30 are still at 13.3 after almost a year is absurd. They can meet planes that have 4 sparrows and that’s it in their kit, ffs.

okay bro is just living in fairy tail land where the yak 130 dont exist

Dude can’t use MCLOS AGMs, so he thinks nobody else can

Just the Yak??? What about all the A-4, the Albatross and all the aircraft that can carry bullpops

It uses the SM engine currently, it’s just that the SMT alone uses the unique R-13F-300 rather than the normal R-13-300 like MiG-21MF does which is an export version of SM. How about R-60s and R-13M1s?

Whilst it is quite good, by itself I don’t think it requires a BR increase, therefore the 9M333 should be added to it, which would be slightly better

Optionally, overload could be increased to 40G’s 9M37 overload

Awh cmon (It was a jokepost anyway) still buff it plz

Vehicle: Su-30MK2 AMV/Su-30MKK
Gamemode: Air Realistic
BR Change: 13.3 —> 13.7

The Su-30MK2/MKK overperform at 13.3 and are far closer in effectiveness to current 13.7 aircraft.

Their combination of a 10-air-to-air missile loadout (6 ARH + 4 IR) , modern radar, HMD, IRST, and strong overall performance gives them a significant advantage over other 13.3 fighters. While heavier than other Flankers, the flight performance tradeoff is not enough to justify the lower BR.

The main issue is matchmaking. At 13.3 they frequently face 12.3-12.7 aircraft with substantially weaker sensors, fewer missiles, and inferior to no BVR capability. Moving them to 13.7 would reduce oppressive downtiers while placing them against aircraft with comparable overall combat capability, creating a truly miserable experience at these BRs.

Or just leave it as it is? The 2S6 is at 10.7

That’s a Skyhawk, as I already mentioned.

That came in the last major update, as I already mentioned.

You mean the A-4B? A skyhawk? A plane I already mentioned?

Tbf the SK-60B and Bucanneer also exist, but they’re not even close to being oppressive.

The plane added in the most recent update which I already mentioned?

Also I find it incredible that building the unique gun doesn’t qualify as being close to reality. It’s not a completed chassis to be sure, but the fact that the gun was built and tested says a lot.

Let’s not forget how Gaijin figured out how to arm the Yak 141. Realizing the Ho-Ri II, around a gun that was tested, with drawings thats exist, shouldn’t be more difficult than figuring out which weapons would be on the Yak 141 or how the nonexistent radar would impact the flight characteristics.
