Please Gaijin developers, reduce the combat rating of the A-10C, it is very weak and cannot play at this BR.
Decompression are good but I will not argue these two are anywhere near the best
Well, that does make sense.
ZTZ99A has 27.3 HP/Ton.
Vehicle: Tornado IDS (1995)
Mode: Air RB
BR: 11.7 > 11.3
Reasoning: The Tornado IDS (1995) is the exact same aircraft as the regular Tornado IDS, other than the addition of guided bombs. The guided bombs only affect it’s effectiveness in Ground Battles, but has zero impact on Air Battles. Lowering it’s BR will also make it a lot less punishing in uptiers, and it won’t meet 12.7 aircraft.
bruh if you think that the TKX p is = to any of the 11.7 tanks currently in the game you have massive delusions. GL with your life!
M1A1 is literally better than the all the current 11.3 japanese tanks and isnt moving in BR inshallah. People are just complaining because they dont understand how the game works and what is and isnt good. Your comments are case and point. They have no brain and just see 4 second reload and then cry.
Vehicle: Tornado IDS MLU (RET.8)
Mode: Air RB
BR: 11.7 > 11.3
Reasoning: The Tornado IDS MLU (RET.8) is the exact same aircraft as the regular Tornado IDS, other than the addition of guided bombs. The guided bombs only affect it’s effectiveness in Ground Battles, but has zero impact on Air Battles. Lowering it’s BR will also make it a lot less punishing in uptiers, and it won’t meet 12.7 aircraft.
Vehicle - OTOMATIC
Mode - Ground RB
BR - 11.3 > 10.7
Reasoning: The OTOMATIC is severely underperforming at it’s BR because it simply cannot shoot down the current CAS planes it meets at and around it’s BR. Even in real life it only had an effective range of around 4km, which is FAR exceeded by the effective range of any strike aircraft over 10.7. Comparing the OTOMATIC to the 2S38 which is believed to take on the same role in real life, it lacks radar, but has a huge magazine (whereas the OTOMATIC can only shoot 29 rounds before having to reload), unlimited anti-armor ammunition (OTOMATIC has only 12 APFSDS shells available), better thermals, better mobility, much smaller size, laser warning system and the benefits of a light tank (Scouting and UAV).
We should get the Malawi/Nigeria full trim export spec for fox to compensate for this, meaning electrical traverse to bring it back to what it was.
will be nice if they corrected the top speed to its actual 105kph as they accepted my report
Seafire LF III (UK/France)
Realistic Mode
BR: 5.0 → 4.3
The Seafire III doesn’t do anything better than the Spitfire Mk IX at 4.3 and is in some ways worse than it due to the Supercharger gears being optimised for low altitudes, which only lets the Seafire somewhat compete with the Mk IX at lower alitiudes with an older engine, and it’s at the same BR as the Spitfire XVI and 190Ds(!). It’s one of the more overtiered Spitfires in the game and has been left to languish unused at an unusable Battle Rating for too long.
1000000000% agree, with the new changes to how ammo is replenished in the ammo rack it takes 2x longer to get your rounds back. This SPAA should be 10.7 if the 2S6 is 10.7 literally no reason the oto cant be 10.7.
Vehicle: F-104S ASA
Game mode: Air RB
Changes: 12.0 > 11.7/11.3
Reasons: The F-104S ASA takes the performance of the F-104S, which was mediocre at best at 11.3, and brings it to 12.0 unchanged. Its only advantage is now irrelevant as it’s outpaced by virtually all its peers. The Aim-9Ls are a welcome improvement over the 9Ps however you only get 4 flare hungry missiles now. Alternatively, you can now put your fancy new MTI radar to use with your Aspide missiles, except you once again have to trade your Vulcan for these 2 aggressively average SARH missiles. To top it all off you get a downgraded non-directional RWR, which is historically accurate but only because it was paired with ECM capabilities, which do not exist in-game making it a direct downgrade from the F-104S RWR. Overall the F-104S ASA is simply not competitive, and I suspect the only reason all the Italian F-104s are so high is because dedicated Starfighter players have worked hard to play around its enormous and numerous flaws, but for your average player I believe that these vehicles are borderline unplayable.
Suggestion
Realistic Battles AF
North American A-36 Apache
2.7 - 3.0
The aircraft is essentially an airspawning P-51A with two extra airframe M2 MG’s, Dive brakes, ability to equip heavy bombs & four extra M2 MG’s.
The airspawn basically neglects the penalty of dive brakes & is used often as a stopgap airspawning fighter with great success in all BR’s it’s flown in.
It would be a slight nerf but if the P-51A is already 3.0 with an airfield spawn the A-36 can probably work just as well.
The gaijins took the server statistics data and learned from there that Hellfinre sucks.
Vehicle - SIDAM 25 (Mistral)
Mode - Ground RB
BR - 9.7 > 9.3
Reasoning: This vehicle is worse than most other 9.3 or 9.7 SPAA. It doesn’t have a search radar, it lacks smoke grenades, it has a very tall silhouette making it easy to hit, has low mobility, low ammo count and no thermal imaging. Almost every other SPAA at 9.3 has better capabilities than this vehicle, for example the chinese PGZ04A (thermals, seach radar, smoke grenades), the french SANTAL (search radar, thermals, smoke grenades, scouting) or the israeli Machbet (thermals). Not only that, lowering the SIDAM 25 (Mistral)'s BR to 9.3 will make it fit into Italy’s very populated 9.3 lineup, whereas the only SPAA Italy could use prior is the SIDAM 25 or the Shilka.
Edit: Wrongfully classified the Mistral missiles as MANPADs.
Vehicle - SIDAM 25
Mode: Ground RB
BR: 8.3 > 8.0
Reasoning: It is worse than all other SPAA around it’s BR. It has low amount of ammo, lacks radar, lacks smoke grenades (most other 8.3 SPAA has access to this) and it cannot be used with the italian 8.0 lineup.
There is no Bracket for 12.3
F-16A Block 15 OCU (Thai): 13.7 → 13.0 (remove AMRAAM)
The Thai F-16A Block 15 OCU was unable to use the AIM-120 AMRAAM missile (bug report) and used IR AIM-9P-3/P-4/M missiles only.
The first Thai F-16 to use the AMRAAM missile was the F-16A Block 15 ADF dedicated interceptor, specifically modified to use AMRAAM prior to entering Thai service. The OCU is used in a ground attack role due to its lacking ARH capability.
Except they do of course. They will be surpassed anyway. Then again I prefer they don’t since they become easy lone targets.
They didnt want lists last time, but havent written the same this time round
Feb BR Changes
But assuming its the same, might be worth doing them 1 at a time, because I agree with these changes and would be good to vote them each in turn
Mode: Air RB
Aircraft: F-4EJ/F-4EJ ADTW
BR changes:10.7>11.0.
Reason: F-4EJ need to be moved to 10.7 because it get the worst AIM-7E missiles and the worst Radar for 11.0 also it can’t turn. So I think that jet would be somewhat better at 10.7 or even at 10.3
