Planned Battle Rating changes for April 2025

Jagdtiger: reload time 23,6 sec → 19,4 sec (T34, Sturer Emil)

The Jagdtiger has two dedicated loaders for its two-piece ammo, because of this the reload should be faster than the Maus/E-100 and significantly faster than IS-3 and IS-4 with their cramped turrets and only a single loader.

The Sturer Emil loads similar ammo into a nearly identical gun in 19,4 sec with just a single loader!

The one which they promised almost a year ago.

Marder 1A1: add DM63

20mm HVAP is not even able to kill most light tanks from the front.

It already has the worst ground based ATGMs in the game and only four of them with relatively long reload and very limited launch angles.

It should at least have some firepower, the BMP-1 not only has far superiour missiles but also a gun capable of engaging every other tank frontally.

By far the most stupid balancing decision this time

Tiger II (H) 6.7 > 7.0

Is time gaijin, the vehicle is way too good against 5.7 - 6.0, move with the others heavies and leave there

Not really it would fight more heavy tanks it just cant pen and the apds shatters alot. Regardless it either goes down in BR or it never gets touched like the rest of the 8.3-9.0 vehicles as they are over BR’d or have no lineup. Additionally its not XM800T small or fast which means it can’t get to rat spots nearly as well. This BR change has killed 2 BR’s in one move.

Did Type 81 getting radar or humankind just update a patch to delete eyes problems? Why the fk it going to 11.7 !?

Untouchable, lol no.

I saw some ppl say the Mig 23M, the 11.0 one, needs to go to 10.7 because it’s struggling. I’m thinking, the Kfir Canard, has no radar, no J band RWR, no all aspect missiles, Mig has 6, 2 can be radar ones, comparable terrible flare situation and similar top speed and acceleration.

The Mig 23M would be OP at 10.7, not the Kfir.

Ground RB: 11.3->11.3 (Not moving up to 11.7)

Yes, it’s fast, reverse, forwards, it’s fast. Yes it has 4.0 second autoloader. You want to know what it doesn’t have? ARMOR. I don’t get why we are punishing vehicles that require the player to not drive into the enemy to do well. This tank has DM33 at 11.3 which is already weak compared to something like the M1A1 with the M829A1 with only 1 second of reload longer. Even at 11.3 where it currently sits if you are facing against another MBT and they know you’re there, you’re already at a disadvantage and will probably end up dead. If this vehicle performs well it’s due to the people playing it performing well, not the vehicle itself. It’s advantages over other tanks at the BR doesn’t warrant it moving up to face things like the Challenger 3TD, T80U, M1A2, and Ariete every single match which can all pen the turret cheek of this vehicle with ease.

Mode: Ground Realistic

Vehicly: Sabra MK1

Change: 9.7→ 9.7

Reasoning:
The Chassis is still only an M60 with upgraded Armor which doesn’t help much against kinetic rounds apart from some autocannons. Mobility is poor with very low top speed and only slightly improved acceleration due to a better engine. The only redeeming feature is the gun with extremely good APFSDS rounds. Overall it is great firepower on a really slow and outdated platform with poor survivability.

I personally don’t think that the br changes for the merkavas are valid,if their br go up,then they should get dm63 or some other better ammos.

You have to do 1 post per vehicle, otherwise it gets ignored

I’m so sorry a terribly implemented, shaky stationary gun was ruining your day

Type81 C is a bad move. Why every good spaa needs to be moved to a pointless/unfeasible br? Should def stay at 11.3

CAS already is quite opressing, why should gaijin makes the life of aircraft players even more easy?

Both the T34 and the T26E1 have less effective frontal armor compared to the tiger2, and the t26e1 has awful weakspots, both the turret cheek and the very exposed vertical drive, not to mention the awful reload rate in relation to its pen, twice the time to reload as the tiger2, same pen.

GRB Sd.Kfz.6/2 2.3 → 1.7 or 2.0. It is a sluggish halftrack with almost no armor (only gunshield of 8mm), compared to the 40mm bofors at around and its Br, it has also a lower ap performace.

Vehicle: Hunter F.6 (Great Britain) 9.7 → 9.3.

This vehicle lacks countermeasures, is subsonic, and is not extremely manoeuvrable whilst having IR missiles that are actually fairly lackluster. The Hunter F.6 used to terrorise lobbies due to its thrust at high speeds and general energy management, aswell as the 4 SRAAM, which is why it sits currently at 9.7, but the Hunter has been powercrept to the moon and now doesn’t really make sense at 9.7.

The SRAAMs are funny and can pull off extraordinary shots, but 95% of these will be against players who are unaware of them. The range in these missiles is so limited that they really struggle past 900m, even at altitude. They are also extremely susceptible to flares. They are ostensibly very good, but their actual capability is limited and reliant on enemies not knowing about them. The AIM-9B is nearly a better missile.

Aside from the missiles, it’s a 9.3 plane. We see this with the Dutch Hunter F.6 sitting at this BR now with an identical FM but worse missiles. This plane, while easy to get kills with because of the guns and nose authority, is not actually very great - the MiG-19 is faster, accelerates faster, and is more manoeuvrable than you. The large performance gap between 9.3 and 9.0 means that 9.3 is the right BR for the Dutch hunter, but this doesn’t mean that the British hunter, with a minor upgrade to the missiles shouldnt enjoy this BR too.
