Planned Battle Rating changes for April 2025

Not as much like tanks with no stabilizer and ap shells against t55

From these only XM800T and Type 87 have it but they don’t have thermals, they cap better, this one spot better.
As for acceleration I would suggest to get tech specs and make bug report because yes its almost 20 tons heavy but BTR with 14 tons and 100hp less is much more agile, I would assume that Germans know how to build a gearbox and make decent drive transmission.

XM-800T
GAB: 7.7>8.0
GRB: 8.0>8.7 but give it its laser range finder

AMX 13 7.0 > AMX 13 6.7 (Realistic). I mean… I don’t even know what to say. I mean it can be awsome, but in average it’s not performing any better than, let’s say: m18 at 6.0. Just the same can be good, just very inconsistent. Plus no reverse speed and no .50 cal : <

+1 on this.

wouldnt really be a nerf for it as theres so many afvs it would nuke instantly

Why is Q-5A an Q-5L moving to 10.0 in Air RB ? bruh

laser doesnt really make a difference with the 20mm. it historically wasnt equipped with one either.
it being 8.7 together with bmp-2 would not make sense.

because 9 pops of countermeasures, no missiles and 23mm water guns with low ammo count are a op combination. -gaijin

It’s too strong for 9.7, and France’s other 9.7 vehicles aren’t, that’s all there is to it.

Kurnass 2000 is 12.3 with 6 pythons…

The AMX-40 basically has no armor, and aside from its mobility, it’s not particularly strong compared to other 9.7 vehicles. If it’s just because of the 20mm autocannon, then the AMX-32 and AMX-32 (105) should all be moved to 9.7 or even 10.0 as well—after all, they’re pretty much the same. But if that happens, no one would want to play France anymore. Would that really be better?

Mode: Air Realistic Battles

Aircraft: F-4F (Germany)

Change: 11.0 → 10.7

Reasoning: Relative Effectiveness of AIM-9J at 11.0: While the AIM-9J is a significant improvement over earlier Sidewinder models, it is still outmatched by the missiles frequently encountered at BR 11.0. It is less effective against modern countermeasures (chaff, flares) and possesses a shorter range than missiles like the AIM-9L, R-60M, Magic 2
Lack of Beyond-Visual-Range (BVR) Capability: This argument remains unchanged. The F-4F lacks any capability to engage targets beyond visual range. This puts it at a distinct disadvantage against aircraft equipped with BVR missiles, forcing it to close to within visual range where its flight performance may be lacking.

its top tier mbt mobility with 9.3 firepower at 9.7. if it was classified as a light tank it would be 10.0 already and pushing 10.3.

Hmmm still no justice for german F-104 and german F-4F They are both on 11.0, and it’s so fun to play against planes with all-angle rockets and radar rockets while having just AIM-9J. This is such a disaster.

it would not fall off really even at 12.0. why not put it up there?
its one of those vehicles that can be uptiered infinitely and it wont suffer.

You wanna look at Tornado GR.4, HRR GR.7 and JH-7A as well, what are these CAS doing in 12.3, ARB

the GR.7 could be 12.0, but 11.7 because its a better plane than the A-10C. GR.4 could be 11.7
