Mode: Tank RB
Vehicle: T-72B
BR Change: 10.3 → 10.0
Reasoning:
Inferior in every way to the premium T-80UD. Mobility of a WW2 tank and no thermal.
the weak spots are same across Russian tanks, so the extra armor is irrelevant

cant angle, constant weak spot of hull cheeks, worse turret traverse, large cupola design
Unfortunately most of hte 11.3s right now should be 11.7 even with 12.0 being the top tier.
If anything the T80UD should be 10.7
Vehicle: FV4005
BR: 6.3 to 6.0 RB/AB and 6.3 SB
With how poorly HESH performs, it struggles to kill any tank with spaced armor, it should be even lower in its BR.
Not gonna lie mate, the J7D should probably go back to 11.0, since they dropped the BR of it to 10.7 they absolutely stomp lobbies, especially in the downtier.
People seriously underplayed how effective the plane actually was before.
On a side note, ive seen you respond to this dude a few times, like Kfir canard to 10.3 (wild af)
and I agree with literally all you’ve said.
This is not “bit”" its not a good trade u still lacks against amything that is not heat
Vehicle : T80UD
Ground RB : 10.3 > 10.7
Its functionally a T80U with slighly worse mobility, and no thermal imager. The 3BM42 is one of the best 10.7 rounds in game and is nearly touching on DM33 levels of angled penetration.
Vehicle: ZTZ99A
BR: no changes
Other changes: reload rate changed from 7.1s(AUTO) to 6.5s(AUTO)
While other problems of the vehicle can be overcame in playing differently, the two major issues of the Chinese top tiers were a very weak breech and slow reload. This made frontline gameplay extremely diffcult as either a kill shot or a second shot would not be fired in an engagement.
While the prior one is usually not considered in BR changes, there has been instances where reloads were changed in a BR shift. They should be on the list here.

See the comment above, this is to comply with the format for one vehicle per post
Yes make sanse the 8.3 m48 will have a hard time against the best 9.3
Like t64b will have a hard time against leo2a4
Or 76 jumbo against is 3
Yes it is just a bit.
HEAT is still pretty common around 8.0 - 8.3 and is a definite advantage.
Vehicle: AMX A-1A(BR)
BR: 11.3/11.0/11.0 AB/RB/SB to 11.0/10.7/10.7 AB/RB/SB
The two piranhas are not significant enough to make the A-1A to be a notch higher than the OG Italian one, which also has a vulcan.
Vehicle: Kfir C.7
BR: no changes
Other changes: stock weapons as 2x AIM-9G and 2x AIM-9D/Shafrir 2
Not particularly bad, but the plane faces a painfully long stock grind. It may be slightly overtiered, but there are other 12.0 or even higher aircraft with questionable BR.
F-89B
Air RB: 7.0>7.7.
It’s just too fast and has too good of flight performance to be at the same BR as the F-80A, Me-262s, and to be fighting props regularly.
Vehicle: Phantom FG1/FGR2
BR: no changes
Other changes: stock weapons as 2xAIM-9D and 2xSkyflash DF, AIM-7E modifications removed
They are worse than F-4J/S but somewhat doable. However, most 12.0 aircrafts do face an excruciating stock grind. At least they dont need to research bombs before missiles.
Vehicle: F-4J/S
BR: no changes
Other changes: stock weapons as 2xAIM-9D and 2xAIM-7E2(DF)
Being one of the better 12.0s does help out a ton. Still, considering how 11.0 to 13.0 matchmakers are, their stock grind are equally painful.
Vehicle: MiG-23MLD
BR: 11.7 to 12.3
Other changes: R-73 as a researchable weapon, two installed on fuselage pylons; stock weapons as 2xR-24R or 2xR-60M and 2xR-13M1
The MLD with slats and an improved RWR is better than other floggers but not significantly. This change can make it play worthy compared to the premium ML. Plus it does have R-73s capable.
This thing should go up in BR, not down
