Planned Battle Rating changes for April 2025

There is also no lineup to play it with except the AMX 30

Mode: Simulator Battles

Vehicle: Su-27SK / J-11 / Su-33

BR Change: 13.3 > 13.0

Reasoning: The inferior avionics of the early Su-27 series (poor RWR, poor radar) make it unviable in the current Sim matchmaker, as currently, these jets will always face 13.7 and 14.0, which makes these planes obsolete as there is no reason to fly them out as opposed to the Su-27SM or the J-11A/B.

Here we go again. Another attempt to save heavy bombers.
Air Realistic Battles
Tu-4 (all)
8.0 → 7.0
At its current BR Tu-4 constantly meets planes, that are way faster and often armed with air-to-air missiles. Tu-4 can’t win matches or play effectively, because if enemy team ignores you, you’ll never get any kills. Also, there are many fast planes with bombs and airspawns on close BRs, that can reach bases much faster, so bombing on Tu-4 is also worthless.

Mode: Ground Realistic Battles

Aircraft: AMX-40

Change: 10.0→ 9.7

Raising the AMX-40 tank to 10.0 is unacceptable. Compared to the Leopard 2K, its sight magnification, protection, and turret rotation speed are all significantly worse. The AMX-40 should not be raised in RB, or at the very least, it should receive some buffs.

GSB, GRB or GAB???

Whats this “everything better” you speak of

J7W, air RB
BR: 6.0→6.0 but give its airspawn back, or move it down to 5.7
Being an interceptor in-game, it lost its airspawn a while back. There’s honestly no reason for it, as its flight performance is rather poor compared to counterparts such as the hornet, who has an airspawn.

You are not the only one and it’s because:

A) someone has already posted the reports
B) I asked that it be kept on topic. These reports have nothing to do with the topic.

Vehicle: M1 Abrams
Change: M833
Abrams is currently having a hard time with just M774 APFSDS. M774 is not enough to deal with 10.7+ targets. So M1 Abrams should receive M833 to make it playable again.

It will also ruin the 9.7 lineup which is the only good one France has at high tier

T-64B and Sabra were contemporaries at 9.7. One moved up to 10.0 and other one didn’t which brought up this discussion in the first place.

Try playing the game maybe ?

But i like getting nukes in the yak9ut…

Tbh though i dont really see them that much, grandted i dont play alot of 4.0 ish br but i do play around 5.7 every now and again and i dont really see them spammed as much.

not aware of that i only answered to your message , which you replied to me

i mean still A, i answered you. We pointed out the mistakes in the BR increase.

The tldr is you cant fault us for calling it fake , when the helicopter is flying around with 50% features it never had in reality

8.7 moving to 9.0 was not a good change, makes the strong 8.3 vehicles even more OP

Vehicle: Tornado GR4
Gamemode: Ground Realistic
BR Change: 12.3 —> 11.7
Reason: With the changes to pushing the top tier CAS up to 13.0, this creates an oppotunity for these “mid performance” CAS aircraft like the Tornado GR4 to get a BR drop down to 11.7 where they could operate largely free of the vastly superior CAS aircraft above. The Tornado GR4 isnt that far off the Mirage 2000D or Tornado GR1/A200C in terms of performance, all of which are 11.3 in ground currently.

Mitigation: Increase the SP cost of Brimstones notably on the Tornado GR4

Game Mode: Naval Realistic Battles

Vehicle: Prinz Eugen and Admiral Hipper

Change: 5.7 > 6.0

Reasoning: These german heavy cruisers are overly dominant in 5.7 naval matches, to the point where the team with the most of these ships has a much greater chance of victory. They are far and above superior to any other 5.7 ship with good armour and outstanding penetration and DPM. A 5.7 naval match almost always has a hipper-class cruiser in 1st place, they are miserable to face in other 5.7 heavy cruisers yet alone 4.7 destroyers.
