Planned Battle Rating changes for April 2025

Move all type 90 to 11.7, absolutely no reason they should be 11.3.

The round is plenty sufficient to kill anything it faces.

The suspension also adjusts.

Not the greatest armor but neither do other 11.7 tanks like the Centauro 120z

And the 4 second autoloader that isn’t affected by losing a crew member is the main reason.

its random af the TKX (P) is going to 11.7 but ^Not the Type 90

Mode: Naval Arcade + Realistic

Ship: Cruisers

Change: 5.7->6.0

Reasoning: Stop compressing BR’s. Destroyers and low BR cruisers are helpless against top cruisers. We need more decompression, not other way around.

It does have an exellent commander optics just 4x-20x

see swings and roundabouts

Mode: Realistic Battles

Vehicle: Merkava mk.2D

BR change: 10.0 > 9.7
or BR change ,10.0 but rank Rank 6 > Rank 7

Reasoning: if 10.0 (i do not agree) at least put it in rank 7. This tank has bad thermals, bad optics, very slow and the armor is far from reliable, so i think it should stay where it is, it’s exactly the same as the Merkava mk2 B, cause the additional composite armor does absolute nothing

Mode: Ground RB

Vehicle: Merkava mk.2D

Change: 10.0 > 9.7

Reasoning: Unlike Shiir or AMX-40 it has neither protection, nor mobility. Compared to tech-tree merkavas that are 0.3 BR lower it only has better HEAT protection, but almost nobody uses HEAT rounds at this BR.

this is not wholly true, while the weather is clear, type 81 can easily lock and kill even strike uav’s from 9km away.
it has contrast lock allowing for further lock than what the missile can normally do. this only works against a clear sky, if there is a mountain/trees/thick clouds on the background its not going to work.

type 93 & strela also have access to this feature, allowing the strela to frontally lock at 7+km away instead of just its stated 3.2 km.

agreed. also if it is put up to 10.0 gaijin should atleast give it a better round too to compensate.

that certain demographic only flock to good vehicles like of of-40 mtca, itpsv, etc.
its funny how ‘they’ flocking to the amx-40 is one of the clearest signs to tell you that it is a very good vehicle.

I agree itpsv should go up too, I already mentioned that

TKX (P) has way better optics that Type90, both in zooming and thermal, better protection and reverse speed, it’s basic a Type10 with jm33. People playing Japan 11.3 lineup all know it outperforms Type90 and always put it as first option. So raise it to 11.7 is fine but not necessary to me.

Vehicle: CL-13 Mk.4 (Italy)

Mode: Air Realistic

BR Change: 8.3 > 8.0

Its an F-86A without leading edge slats, so worst than a Sabre F-86A. Gaijin let this plane at 8.3 after a Sabres moved down…

Ozelot should go back to 9.3 already

the TKX (p) protection is not better at all, having used them both for a few hundred games between them, the type 90 is more survivable and has more effective armour.
The TKX (P) has better armour on one very specific point of the turret.

The thermals arent that big a deal gen 1 and gen 2 while nice its still better to use thermals to spot then standard no thermals for firing.
The magnification is nice to have though.

The TKX (P) is less mobile forward though than the type, is also taller last i checked.

I prefer the type 90s over the TKX (P) its nice to have but its always my 3rd spawn over the two type 90s first.

The type 90 should go to 11.7 with the TKX (P).

theyre functionally identical gameplay wise.

EDIT: straight from the wiki
The TKX (P) comes as a supplement to the Type 90 with the improved Gen 3 thermals as opposed to Gen 1 and a smaller mantlet at the cost of turret side protection and overall mobility

im sorry but 8.3 planes should not be seeing the ozelot.

some decompression would solve its problems

The ozelot is one of the worst SPAA lmao it was fine at 9.3, you can just pull a bit of G and dive down and the missile is defeated, and even if, there is still the ZSU with Iglas which are far more annoying at 9.3

people really playing japan 11.3 understand that with the tkx(p) you get much better thermals & reverse speed for a downgrade in armor, acceleration & ready rack size. its a sidegrade vehicle and wholly depends on personal preference.
for me the extra 4 rounds in the rack with the 90 is the most important perk.

i dont agree that they are going to raise the tkx(p), but not the type 90s. all of them are about equally powerful and can go up no problem.

the ozelot isnt the worst spaa at all.
the iglas stingers are over nerfed Im aware but the zsu is still a far worse platform to be using.

the ozelot is fine at 9.7 like i siad, no 8.3 should be against that in all fairness.

So ozelot is a problem but not the PGZ04, SANTAL or literally the Toyota with Stingers?.. Make it make sense, thanks
