Planned Battle Rating changes for April 2025

By the way, TKX(P) is kind of fair at current state. It can be compared to M1 AIm sincee they both have top thermals and what not, but M1 Aim got top tier shell unlike tkx(p) which only has dm33 making it all right vehicle for 11.3 not 11.7

I have a suggestion regarding SB BR changes, specifically about the Su-33.

The Su-33 is a great jet, but I find it underwhelming at BR 13.3 in Sim. It’s actually weaker than the regular Su-27. The Su-33 has fewer countermeasures and constantly faces Fox-3 spam in every match.

I suggest lowering the Su-33 to BR 13.0 to give it a fair chance in combat. At 13.0, you still have aircraft like the Kfir C.10 with an excellent AESA radar, and the early F-18C, which is at 12.7 and, in my opinion, performs much better than the Su-33, along with other strong fighters.

The Su-33 would fit much better at BR 13.0 for sure.

With all do respect to Gaijin team.

Asking for Mig-29 9-12/9-13 for all nations to get R-73s and the removal of R27ER/ER1 and to stay on the same BR or a slight raise to 13.0. Please consider.

Mode: Ground Realistic Battles

Tank: KV-1 m1942 (Finland)

Change: 4.7 → 4.3

Reasoning: Lowering the KV-1 m1942 (Finland) to BR 4.3 would better place it in matchups where both its armor and gun are more effective. At its current BR, it often feels outmatched and outclassed. Simply dropping it to 4.3 would help it not have to struggle against the 5.0+ matchups and not dominate the lower tiers at 3.0-3.7

T-55-adjacent vehicles are still strong on 9.0, since it also faces a lot of downtiers similar to 8.7, but prevents it slapping 7.7 vehicles into oblivion. not sure about object 435 going up tho.

When you allready move the Tiger UHT/HAC to 12.3, how about after YEARS of nothing, maybe add finally the dual PARS for the outer pylon?

RB TKX(P) BR 11.7->12.0 and provide Type10 APFSDS or 11.7->11.3(no change).
An vecihle in 11.7 but only have DM33 is far more ridicious.comparing to other same BR vecihles(Click Bait has M829A4 with a 5s reload which is not much slower than TKX(P)‘s 4s reload or Ariete has DM53 also with 5s reload)
RB Type81(C Standard) BR11.7->11.3
how can a SPAA without any radar and only equipped an moderate 10km missile(in real battle lock distance is only 8km) went to 11.7?

I see that French vehicles continue to be murdered.

F-16 ADF needs aim-9L/I’s. at 12.7 it is entirely outclassed by the F-18’s with the sole exception being it’s energy retention. It’s in a really awkward place where there’s no real reason to fly it over the 16-A as the 2x AIM-7M’s aren’t enough to justify the BR increase and consistently fighting 13.0’s.

Vehicle : R2Y2
Gamemode : Air Realistic Battles
BR Change : 8.0 → 7.7
Reason : The R2Y2’s are heavily limited by their low speed for the BR and while they are good at maintaining their energy they do not start off with good enough energy due to their pretty low speed. This is especially important when aircraft such as the F-86A-5 Sabre and Mig-15 are at 8.0 which fly much faster than it and turn quite alot better.

alternatively if the BR will not change, make the R2Y2’s into strike aircraft since Gaijin considers the R2Y2’s to be bomber type aircraft

Mode: Air Simulator

Aircraft: P-51C-10 (USA)

4.0 → 4.3

Better than the P-51D-5 in every regard except visibility. A little too strong to be 4.0 and if not for being kinda hard to see out of, I’d even say it should be 4.7.

In my eyes the KV-7 and KV-1S going up yet the E/B not is a little bit silly, both the 7 and 1S are worse in my opinion than the E/B

Vehicle: Merkava Mk.3B/C

Change: Reload rate 6.5 s → 5 s

Reason: This tank have terrible armor and survivability, bad mobility and M332 APDSFS doesn’t compensate its characteristics. It’s basically the same issue Merkava Mk.4’s have, however they received reload buff.

Didn’t it have more countermeasures but no HMS? it was also over tiered by being put at 13.7 with those? i may be misremembering

Air RB
Why are there still no changes in realistic air battles???
What are planes like the F-4S Phantom II(premium) and the F-4J(UK) Phantom II(premium) doing on the same BR(12.0)???
Two planes with completely different armaments, which should be separated by at least 1 BR level.
The F-4J(UK) is one of the worst Phantoms in the game, with Skyflash missiles that don’t work and a radar that doesn’t want to properly lock on to targets. Additionally, this plane lacks wing slots that the F-4S version has, making it the heaviest Phantom with weak engines that can barely fly. And both of these planes on the same BR for $70?
Are you kidding people and the British nation? This is simply scandalous.

Mode: Ground Realistic

Aircraft: Z-9W

Change: 10.3 to 9.3, remove TY-90 or add better anti tank missiles and stay at 10.3

Reasoning: Z-9W lacks anti tank weaponry to be useful at 10.3, the TY-90 is a great missile but only useful against aircraft while the kiowa warrier has hellfire Ks at 10.3 with 5km more range, way more pen and the kiowa warrior has countermeasures where the Z-9W does not.

“type90 is way weaker then tkx and has way less armour on manlet” that’s why stay at 11.3

ocu only has 45 countermeasures bro

To be honest if you use it and use terrain and your gun depression to your advantage and its mobility to scoot around and not be super aggressive its really good. You have to use it to the same standards as other glass-cannons don’t be seen and you will do fine. Its a tank destroyer and you use it to at distance pick off tanks behind cover
