Mode: Air Realistic Battles
Vehicle: F-4EJ改
BR Change: 12.3 → 12.7/13.0 By adding AAM-3
Reasoning:
Since the F-16 MLU Block 20 and the ADF are receiving 120A and be moved to 13.3, the chance of F-4EJ改 encounter players with amraam will be increased in some level, to give it it’s trick up it’s sleeve, giving it AAM-3 will be able to boost its performance, and the AAM-3 is actually used by the JASDF in some later F-4EJ改 all the way to 2020, and not to mention that it will run into AIM-120B and AIM-9M already since the AV-8B+ and Tornado F.3 is at 13.0.
Yeah, in the current state the A/B is probably a better fit. C5 does have some other strengths like it’s much better in rear aspect engagements. But the big question is. Will they buff C5s? Even just a slightly better seeker will make a load of difference
Vehicle : Kfir C.7
Gamemode : Air RB
Change : 12.0 > 11.7
Reason: Kfir C.7 can only have 4 IR missiles without IRCCM. This is far inferior to the attack power of aircraft with the same BR. It should also be noted that the Kfir C.7 can only have 36 CMs, which is not enough to compensate for its lack of offensive capability. Thus, the Kfir C.7 has few advantages as a BR 12.0 aircraft, and I propose to lower its BR.
Gamemode: Air RB
Aircraft: F-15E and F-15I
Change: 14.0 to 14.3
Reasoning: These are the strongest aircraft of the US and Israeli tree, and they blow most of the other 14.0 BR planes out of the water. They’re more than competitive with EF2000 and Su-30SM. 13.0 BR on the other hand, has literally zero chance to really fight back.
Vehicle : Chieftain Mk.3
Gamemode : Ground RB
Change : 8.7 > 8.3
Reason : Chieftain Mk.3 is too slow. It does not have enough armor to compensate for its slow speed. the Chietain Mk.3 is not capable of BR 8.7. I propose to lower the BR of this vehicle.
ARB
Harrier GR.1 9.7 to 9.3
not competetive against its own br, barely usable missiles and no countermeasures make this plane very bad at its current br
(cmon gaijin gimme a reason to buy it)
Reasoning: and the combat rating was already underestimated, and now with the new missiles it is definitely necessary to move it higher. And so many planes fly without heat traps, and you still want to bring the best missiles to this BR
Whats especially annoying is that ontop of being far weaker than the other 4 harriers with no CMs. The SRAAMs are a total buggy mess that they just wont fix. Report are 3 years old. Ontop of all the Harrier issues
the only other high tier tank is the hstvl and they make up for the low pen with a short reload time, and while 5 seconds is fast its no fast enough to justify a sub 400 mm pen
Mode: Ground Realistic Battles
Vehicle: Kungstiger and Tiger II (P)
BR Change : 6.7 → 6.3
Reasoning: With the new mobility, not having armor in the turret that can be penetrated by everything from BR 4.7, this change has long been needed. These tanks are very weak.
Why? There are pics with J’s on it. Aim-9B are useless at these BRs. My 8.0 Seahawk has 9B’s and it barely works. What would a 10.0 jet do with this bs missile?
