I don’t own the second Thai Alpha Jet, and haven’t flown any of them in Sim, but I’d be careful lowering anything with all aspect IR missiles to 10.0. On paper it definitely looks worse than the base Su-25s or A-10As, but I feel it should be tested at 10.3 first just to make sure it doesn’t become too powerful. That would at least move it out of AIM-7E lobbies for a couple days each cycle, then it can be balance again from there.
This is a vehicle that already plays 2/3 of its battles at 4.3 against the VK 3002 (M), against which it is absolutely useless, with further increase its armor will cease to be an advantage, and it has no others. Even at 4.0 long-barreled tanks had no problems with destroying the KV-1E.
Doesn’t excuse seal clubbing in downtiers. The game should not be introducing more fox3s to lower BRs. Decompress.
But not all 9.7-10.3s do!
Find the difference in what you said, I’ll even assist you by saying it has to do with the BRs you mentioned
R-60Ms aren’t overpowered when facing flareless jets in a supersonic?
It does for me though
They matter when you’re trying to claim skill issue. I wouldn’t have brought them up otherwise.
Buuuut… they are
I know better though.
THAT is what upset you?
Skill issue

Your stats are below average. Mine are not.
It actually became more of a potent tank killer once they moved it to 8.3. Many more soft targets. But yes, ZA-35 is the better SPAA, and now 8.3 Britain will be weakened in that regard.
Can we all agree that those discussing air in this topic sound like a bunch of kids slinging mud at each other? Another ground W.

Sherman I Composito & Sherman III/IV
3.7 → 4.0
These two Shermans are consistently dominating matches. Likely having even better performance than M4A2 which is already at 4.0. Composito has better armor profile and III/IV has significantly better power to weight ratio.
I played Sherman I Composito extensively and that thing is just easy mode at 3.7 especially when all T-34s went to 4.0 and now KV-1S & KV-1B & KV-1E went to 4.3

Has flares for a reason, unlike the 10.0s and 10.3s it sealclubs.
wow that’s crazy
anyway the 104G is 10.7
The issue is that you’re rarely in a position to actually use the all-aspect capability. In Sim this requires 2 things: first, finding a player aircraft (which is easy), but second, you have to MAKE SURE that plane you found is actually an enemy.
Without already being in a fight or 3rd partying one, and without a radar, you can’t really do that. Not without accumulating teamkills regularly, or dragging someone else along with a radar to serve as your IFF device… and at that point you might as well just play something else.
At 10.3, and even 10.0 it still faces very fast planes, and it is still completely unable to look backwards. It carries a good number of flares, but unlike A-10 it is by no means enough to turn on periodic CMs and forget about it.
A-10A is also 10.7 Sim, but it has much better air-to-ground ordnance (6x AGM-65s), a better gun, a better canopy, and 4x AIM-9L with much greater range than the 9P-4s; if we compare against the premium A-10A, that one gets two less 9Ls but gets GBU-8s as well.
At the moment, the Alpha Jet TH is a ground attacker that can’t ground attack (due to lack of standoff weapons), at the same BR as an attacker that can ground attack and is better everywhere else, including with much better all-aspect missiles.
12.7 is not some world ending event that you moaning about. Hornet, Gripens, MiG, Su’s, Vipers, Eagels, Typhoons, Rafales these all need to go away to the moon. Harrier has no business fighting these.
Oh so you’re boasting about the lone wolves that don’t have CMs? case in point I recently spaded the Swiss Hunter F58 with 20g 9Js. Wonderful experience cuz I had lovely slow moving A-10s. A few non-CM jets like F-4C and MiG-21S’s/SPSK’s. Other than them… every jet had CMs. & very few kills against these CMs jets.
The big 4 nations… far more CM jets that constantly see 10.7s. Rank 6’s rare occasions see 10.7 otherwise they nvr see it to make people like you whine.
R-60M aren’t OP at all. SMH this ain’t a 2020-2022 when R-60M were meta then were atleast decent.
Furthermore there’s more CM jets in the match than non-CMs. You’re arguing like how people whined the B-29 had the highest repair cost when they didn’t even play it.
Hehe, I got nothing to say for you. You wanna chase after K/D go for it. I don’t chase K/D’s. I experience it and judge it according to the experience. & FYI I’m not the only one who asking for Strikers to be lowered.
You disagree with me, I disagree with you. Theres nothing more to add.
As matter of fact not 100% They matter? sure. Do they matter 100%? Absolutely not. They don’t tell the experience, or the context.
Now thats arrogance.
Upset? No. Astonished? Yes, you think “Strikers are fine where they are”. Yea I don’t need to explain it over how incomprehensible that take is.
Guess you’re not good judge. You must be speaking with an unbelievable level of insanity, if you believe Strikers are not bad in their current state XD
X3
LMFAO We got a Sweaty Stat Lover here folks. If you didn’t learn anything from the picture of the A-10C battle I shared nor added anything constructive about the Striker category in general. Yea you got no idea what you’re talking about.
Lets Agree to disagree, you do you. :)

Mode: Ground Realistic Battles
Vehicle: ZTZ88A, T-69 II G, ZLT11, VT5
Shell: DTB-1
Trigger radius: 15m → 3m or 5m
Reasoning:
The primary targets for proximity-fuzed grenades are lightly armored vehicles and aerial units. For the 105mm DTB-1, its 1.66 kg of explosive charge is insufficient to inflict damage on such targets at a distance of 15 meters, rendering the proximity fuze ineffective. Meanwhile, high-explosive shells of 155mm/152mm caliber, which have far greater destructive power than the DTB-1, have a proximity detonation range of only 3 meters. This contrast highlights the issue even more. Therefore, it is recommended to reduce the DTB-1’s proximity detonation range to between 3 and 5 meters, while increasing the proximity detonation range of 155mm/152mm high-explosive shells to between 5 and 10 meters.

2S38 cope in the big 25 🥀
I’ve played both and HSTV-L is so far superior that it’s genuinely tiring seeing people constantly compare them.
The HSTV-L is significantly faster than the 2S38. It’s the fastest vehicle at its tier bar wheeled light tanks. The HSTV-L also has -15 to -17 degrees of gun depression meaning it can fire from positions essentially every other tank can’t. It has a low profile turret meaning that when you are hull down it is very tricky to actually damage you without HE (which a lot of people don’t have/carry). It also has 2 crew members in the hull meaning that even if you’re crew member in the turret is killed, it doesn’t really matter at all as you still have two well protected crew in the hull.
The HSTV-L also has a significantly better round, XM885, which spalls significantly more a should only take 2-4 shots to the side of the hull for any tank, which might sound like a while but you can disable critical components first and then go for crew members.
The 2S38 has better fire rate, sure, but it is irrelevant if most of your rounds effectively do nothing as you try and spam fire. You’re far less likely to one tap a tank with the 2S38 than the HSTV-L.

Eh, no Klimi and Zis-5 both have 90mm armor on the turret, the KV-1B/E have 105mm. The KV-1B/E have 25mm plates over the crew area on the side giving them 105mm side armor unlike the Klimi amd Zis-5 which get 75mm. The Klimi and Zis-5 get neck armor u like the KV-1B/E while also having the 4.0 T-34 gun. Id say they are sidegrades at best.
Is this the 9.12A? or G? If these are later G models then sure, but Gaijin has also denied some other pictures for other stuff saying they don’t take it as true and that they have sources.
So google is not my true friend all the time.
I mentioned to another guy, that I’ve only been able to find 27R being mentioned, no T/ET/ER. Just normal R
The new SBEC BR has a bracket of 11.7-12.3 BR, but please reconsider changing this to 11.3-12.3 BR or 11.7-12.7 BR.
My primary concern is the significant aircraft disparity between the two sides. The available high-tier aircraft for the Red forces (Russia, Germany, China) are quite limited. Their lineup mainly consists of 11.7 BR attackers, with the JH-7A being the only 12.3 BR option, which is not an air-superiority fighter.
Redfor Lineup:
- Tornado IDS ASSTA1 (11.7)
- Su-25T/39 (11.7)
- Su-25BM (11.7)
- J-8B (11.7)
- JH-7A (12.3)
In contrast, the Blue forces have access to several powerful 12.3 BR fighters. This situation creates a severe disadvantage for the Redfor, making it very difficult to compete and negatively impacting the matchmaking experience, makes it ways hard to find games.
First pic is me. Second is you. Yea, you’re full of it with your take LOL.

Vehicle: M109 series, PZH2000 series, 2s19/2s3 series, G6, Type 75/Type 99, PLZ83/PLZ83-130/PLZ05, AuF1, Bkan 1C, Sholef

Trigger radius: 3m → 5m or 10m
Reasoning:
Currently, the proximity detonation range of large-caliber howitzer shells in the game is too short—significantly less than their effective damage range against lightly armored targets and aerial units. This severely limits the intended unique capabilities of large-caliber proximity-fuzed shells and greatly reduces their combat effectiveness. Appropriately extending the detonation range could significantly enhance the anti-air capabilities of large-caliber howitzers, adding greater tactical flexibility to gameplay and highlighting the uniqueness of these vehicles, thereby attracting more players to engage with this mechanic.

I just want to come back to say that the people crying over the changes to the HL210 and 230 engines deserve it.
This game is best when things are modelled correctly, your tank that is legendary for being too fat, slow and underpowered shouldnt be capable of outspeeding the MBTs of the next decade which have a superior P2W and werent complete trash in combat performance. (they will still dominate the BR bracket if you dont suck)
that guy has a better K/D to you
All of them from my post are G model.
The MiG-29 (29 + 03) shown in the photo is on display as a G model at the Luftwaffe museum in Berlin.
T model is physically possible to mount and launch it but, GDR never had afaik.
As I don’t have that much knowledge about Fulcrum, I recommend checking out the specialized topics on the forum.
