Planned Battle Rating changes for April 2025

with the BR being sent to 12.3, the Tiger should get the 144 CM option pronto as well as the extra PARS loadout

FV 4030/3 and AMX-40 go to 10.0 but the T-64B staying at 9.7 is disgraceful.

Don’t know what I think about the 4030/3 moving to 10.0. Its a strong vehicle at 9.7 but nothing gamebreaking. Its hull armour is pretty weak, no thermals, etc

Mode: Air Realistic Battles

Aircraft: J-7D (China)

Change: 10.7->11.0

Reasoning: This aircraft has been dominating 10.7 since it was moved down and is in dire need of moving up. Not only do you get the choice of up to four Magic 1 which is already very good at the BR but you also have the PL-5B, which moves incredibly fast and doesn’t give people a lot of time to react and will even ignore flares within around .7KM. These missiles are better in every single manner over the R-60M’s found on the Mig-21bis besides the capability to fire in a head on. Although it climbs slower than the Mig-21bis, it makes up for this in the amount of CM’s it possesses, its superior RWR, and its ability to dogfight better than the mig-21bis. I don’t see why this should be 10.7 whilst the J-7E which is very similar and even lacks the PL-7 as an option is 11.3.

does the t-64b get an APFSDS?

Vehicle: Sea Harrier FRS.1 (late)

Game mode: Air Simulator

BR change: 11.3 → 11.0

Reason: It’s almost the same jet as Harrier FRS.1 (early), but with additional 2 missiles.

Wdym type 16 chassis isn’t mobile… agree on the change tho

Agreed but it’s the fact the T-64B gets to stay at 9.7 where it is already very potent (excellent armour and round, decent mobility) while these mediocre western MBTs get pushed up to 10.0.

VT-5 needs BTA2 APFSDS now.

Yes - 3BM42

“Mediocre” western MBT in Sabra wipes the floor with T-64B lol.

I didn’t mention the Sabra.

Keep the rapier at 10.0 but fix the damage, proxy and maneuverability please. Missiles are exploding 9m behind targets, doing no damage. Missile wobbles like crazy on the slightest movement, and it clearly isn’t pulling 35gs. If fixed and have it work like on paper, it could even work in 10.3, because of the fast missiles.

okay. .3 of a battle rating change won’t change things too much. The only difference is that your uptiers won’t be getting your teeth knocked in by 11.0’s, and your downtiers will be against 9.7’s, if you get any.

Vehicle: AMX 13 (All variants)
Gamemode: Ground Realistic
BR Change: 6.7 —> 6.7
Reason
The AMX 13 should stay at 6.7 because there is no reason at all to move it up. The gun handling is bad, speed is average and armour is terrible.
The gun has only 200mm of armour which is ridiculous against 8.0 opponents.
There is NO OTHER tank to make a lineup with it except the AMX 10 ACRA which is one of the worst TD of the game.
This will simply kill the tank as no one will play it now

But I did, as it’s also one that’s moving up to 10.0 and is a western MBT.

Yeah, its the most pointless BR change ever. As we have nothing at 9.7 and it will just get used at 10.0 anyway.

Actually making it 10.0 worthy would be a far better use of time

Mode: All Ground Battles.

Vehicle: Kugelblitz

Change: 7.0 → 6.7

Reasoning : Still a struggle to play with the seeminly low velocity of the rounds and slow turret traverse against early jets and superprops .Also has no other vehicle to have a line-up and its not worth it to take your 6.7 lineup up in BR ,for it will see 8.0 in a full uptier, which happened more than not
