Planned Battle Rating changes for August 2025 (updated 16:00, 15.08)

Game mode: Realistic battles
Vehicle: Venom FB.4
BR change: 8.7>8.3

Reasoning: Gun fighter with relatively lower acceleration/top speeds which is unable to keep up/threaten the large number of transonic/mach capable aircraft in the brackets it currently fights. Unlike many other similar issue aircraft, the Venom does not have any kind of air to air missiles to compensate for this issue such as aim-9B on the Scimitar. This would be similar to the same BR changes that were performed on the F-86 and miG-15s in previous changes.

Su-34 being the sams BR as the F-2, F-15C, and Gripen is actually ridiculous.

Or decrease hpm all russian T-34 to 400.

Mode: Ground Realistic Battles/Air Realistic Battles
Vehicle: CL-13 Mk.4 (italy)
BR Change: 8.3 → 8.0

Reasoning: This is essential a F-86A-5, with the same performance. has never had a clear reason to historically have a higher BR

yea not to mention F15C is 13.7, putting it right next to F15C would be a joke, F16a just could not compete.

Naval RB - L9059 : 2.7 > 2.3
This ship is pretty big but it’s armor is like paper. Turret rotation is pretty slow and can be tricky to use because of their positioning. Reload is slow. And last,the speed of the ship does not exceed 25 km/h. It would benefit to see his BR decrease to 2.3 where you can use it on a line up with the Aconit.

What will be the difference between the F-16ADF and F-16C? Will the C finally gets the Aim-120C-5 it should’ve got s long time ago?

f15e is also brick
su30sm is better

Naval Arcade - changes are wrong!

Geniere 4.0>4.3…its already 4.3!!!

Lubeck & Koln…ditto

Z4 …see above

And Z46/47 go up to once again sit alongside the Gearings etc whilst lacking SAP (or even base fuse HE), HE-VT, and having 1/3rd the ammo with a worse turret layout for WT matches.

But at least there is some real upwards movement in coastal with the worst of the low level gunboats/chasers (but none of the French heavies!)

mode: GRB
vehicle: TOR/HQ/17
BR: remove the change.
the efficiency of their missiles are still unchanged, with poor performance, unable to fight 11.7 CAS planes.

Vehicle: BI

Mode: Air RB

BR: 6.7 to 7.3

Reason: BI has always been very good and rules this BR bracket. Compared to something like F86 sabre at 8.0, BI is much faster, better dog fighter, better gun, better everything. Sure it has low amount of ammo and limited amount of fuel but 6.7 is ridiculously low BR for such a powerful jet.

from my tests, pansir is still top 3 Anti airs ingame, outclassing many of the new anti airs we had last patch. i think BVVD confirmed the BUK anti air for russia this patch in the last devstream, so its also gonna be a SACLOS missile, hopefully the better of them both goes up even higher lol

because facing it at 10.0 planes with not a single guided ordnance/RWR is completely unfair

at least you have a decent radar and 12 missiles, or are you willing to trade all that for speed?

With the VT5 going to 11.3 it should also get its 4s reload. Currently it will just be a worse Type 90 at the same BR.

Same could be said for the AGS that should get its M900 round, and not get stuck with its below 400mm of pen at 11.7.

Ground RB - H-34 : 8.0 > 7.7
The French H-34 has been moved to 8.0 while the (better) US one stayed at 7.7, the French one should be back to 7.7, or change to its loadout should be applied (link below).
