the pros more than compensate for these cons
no vehicle is flawless
Definitely not, i spaded my IRIAF at 13.0 its far from the worst 13.0 lol

Moving a lot of 8.7 tanks to 9.0 seems like a very foced change. At 9.0 the T-62M1 is better than all T-55s that are moving, along with Object 435 which should stay at 8.7 it is marginally better than its cousin T-62. I cant imagine these vehicles fairing well at constant 9.7 and 10.0 where they are seriously outmatched in all aspects. All of these 8.7s that are planed to move up are only good at their own BR and should not go any higher IMHO.
Suggestions:
T-54 (1947) 7.7 → 7.3
The first T-54 which was masivly nerfed in terms of its armor which was the only thing making it any better than the rest of early T54s. The matlet is so weak it has no right fighting any tanks at 8.3 or higher. the long 88mm, the Panthers 75mm and US 90mm can cleanly go through the mantlet and one shot the crew with APHE rounds. reliably 160mm of penentration can deestroy the vehicle easily. It would be fair to move it down since it has no APDS, no HEATFS, not very fast or any special feature other than hull armor which. It is a slightly better T-44-1000 that is at 7.7 fighting tanks that laugh at it. Please consider moving this tank down to 7.3
Arado 234 C-3 7.3 → 7.7
This has to be a vehicle which was not changed in BR since it was put into the game. Over this time, it was buffed significantly being able to drop 3 separate bombs at very high speeds in dives making it able to bomb from longer range compared to other vehicles. It is a capable fighter on top of that too with changes to German 20mm belts it is much better in destroying light vehicles with cannons and taking down planes. It has a crazy durable DM where the plane can easily fly without one or both wins on 3 or 2 engines with massive damage to fuselage and tail. It has been a menace in Squadron battles for way too long as well, being a crazy unbalanced plane at max 7.3 and 7.7 squadron battles where it dominates unfairly. Please consider moving its BR in tank battles only to 7.7 at least so it can face proper SPAA that can threaten it.

Nope, it’s actually great
Welcome to playing USSR?? Also the AM-1 cheeks have been broken for years and are not easy to pen. The AMD-1 requires you to play more smart as you don’t have the armor crutch but the APS which can also be very effective if used correctly
the bvr meta and tws mec need a rework

What 13.0 is worse?
pretty.
I mean first of all the average france player is already better than most non british players
Secondly it mostly fights german mains
Then it is a fast tank with a gun compareable to the long 88 and decent armour.
Honestly i think it is stronger than a Tiger II H simply because it can be where it is needed at all times and speed is the meta we have right now.
I mean the only Tiger IIs that approach its performance are the 10.5cm one which is a higher BR and the premium one which ironically is usually played by more skilled players despite being a premium.
Could you give an example of what’s a worse plane at 13.0?

Kfir definitely, 4 missiles and no gun and only R-darter is brutal, or JA37Di.
Ill take IRIAF any day over those hunks of trash.
Shar too

I think another reason the ZT3A2 is at that br is because if you run into anything at close range, or run into anything while moving, or reloading, or if your gunner scratches his nose while a tank comes into view youre dead. Its not responsive enough to deal with enemies, you have to literally sit somewhere, hidden, and do absolutely nothing until someone drives in your LOS and you better pray they dont have a stabiliser, a faster shell and eyes to engage you before your missle makes it to the targer.
If the ratel 20 got apds might be fine to move up, still a bus though.
If the Finnish F-18C were truly as superior as claimed, its in-game presence or social media coverage (like F-18C videos) would not lag so far behind the American F/A-18C Late. The reality is that there is virtually no interest in discussing this “superior” F-18C, making it completely subpar for Swedish players who have long awaited new aircraft in the tech tree.
On another note, I do not believe the lack of a helmet-mounted sight (HMCS) can be equated to the minor weight reduction. The impact of weight or drag differences could easily be offset by external fuel tanks or adjusting fuel load, but the absence of HMCS creates a persistent, game-long disadvantage that cannot be compensated for by other means.

No. its perfectly fine at 7.7 even fully stock… just spaed it a few days ago and it was a pure pleasure

Why is the PGZ09 in blue?

yes, but you can really deal with it even in 7.7, id say this is gaijin’s fault for giving 8.7 full downtiers almost every match, and should not blame 8.7 vehicles. t55s already kinda struggle in uptiers, being faced with much better opponents in terms of armour mobility and firepower, and making it 9.0 will really make it suck. They should instead fix the matchmaking, making it less prone to downtiers.
Mode: Air Realistic Battles
Vehicle: F-14A Early
Change: Add AIM-9L
Reasoning: At 12.7, all other aircraft with vastly superior flight performance, such as Mirage 2000, F-16, and MiG-29 feature the same battle rating with all aspect heatseeking missiles, and in some cases even IRCCM all aspect heatseeking missiles. Even at 12.3, we see aircraft like the F-16A with AIM-9Ls. The AIM-54 is too good to justify a reduction in BR to 12.3, however, this aircraft struggles at 12.7 with its RWR and extremely lackluster AIM-9Hs for 12.7. AIM-9Ls would be a good way to balance this airplane without compressing BRs.

I’m not saying it’s bad or anything but it’s far from the best and still has no reason to be moved to 7.0 with no lineup

You mean the planes with great survivability and 4 ARHs that pull 40G? Those planes? I’d rather be a very nimble R-Darter slinger than watch my lumbering Fakours miss a target doing a barrelroll.
Yeah but that’s a wrong use of the stats just like Gaijin is doing. It’s not because I have a brain that i’m better than a Tiger in any way.
The gun has no HE filler, even though it has good pen, and takes ages to aim as opposed to the said Tiger.
I already need to drive carefully, adjust my accelerations and braking while always listening to engines nearby… PLAYERS may be good, bu the tank is decent at most at its BR
