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

You can kill a Typhoon with an Aim120

And? EF is better in every possible way than those F-16As and should never fight against them. You have only chance to win if Typhoon player has massive skill issue.

Just let go. It’s done.

Has a suggestion been done for the Yak 9K ?

That may be the case, but the thread is still open. It’s a feedback thread, I’ve provided my feedback.

The other side of the coin though is that 11.7s will no longer be facing constant F-16As in an uptier where they really didnt stand much of chance. Even most 12.0s didnt really stand much of chance. Sure it wont change all that much in a long run because there are stil equally strong if not stronger aircraft still at 12.7 and 13.0 but its a start.

Also AMRAAMs for the Italian F-16A ADF have been something heavily requested since AMRAAMs were added. Maybe adding a second F-16 would have been better, but I also dont think it will be the end of the world. They went from full uptiers being Aim-9Ls and Aim-7M vs F-15s and Su-27 slinging IRCCMs and ARH to Aim-9L and AMRAAM vs Typhoon and Su-30 slinging IRCCMs and ARH. If anything, they stand a better chance than they did before

According to Smin, player performance isnt the determining factor for BR increases. So that doesn’t seem all that relevant. Like looking at the BMP-2M, its a highly mobile IFV with a 30mm long dart slinging canon and is able to fire up to four missiles on the move; which is two more than the Puma with Spikers but that vehicle sits at 11.0. Theres an easy argument for it going to at least 10.7 if not 11.0.

?? Are you sure you’re not misquoting Smin

Edit: Some vehicles just are not putting up regardless of player performance, indeed.


And now they’re sending opponents away from it, and also the BMP3 above it… ah well, benefits me, I guess.

Seems like its based on total earning power.

You can search the thread for yak9k if you wish. But yes there have been suggestuons.

mig-29 12.7 ->13.0
change removal of r27er and addition of R73

r60ms are almost useless at there current br cause of how flare hungry they are if it had its historical R73 it would be alot better and R27R1 is only a lil better than standard sparrow since F16ADFs get 120s and move to 13.3 it seems fair as R73s arent as broken as lets say a aim120

Panzer IV J

GRB

Rank II → Rank III

A medium tank with a good cannon, however unlike the Panzer IV H, it have the major drawback of a horrible turret traverse, which is why i am not suggesting a BR increase at the same time. If the Panzer IV H, will be moved to Rank III, then it would make the most sense for this also to be moved up in rank, since they are folded together. At the same the Finnish Panzer IV, which is also a Ausf. J, is currently at Rank III, so the two tanks would get the same rank.

StuG III G (Germany)

GRB

Rank II → Rank III

Move the StuG III G up to Rank III, so it will have the same rank as the Italian StuG III G.

thx

average gaijin hate on germany its normal first the tiger 1 and now the tiger 2

Thing is, it could possibly stay 12.7- its the 21bison but with 2 more R-73s and a worse radar.
29G is an improvement (let it keep the ER/ETs at 13.0) and in removing the 27ERs and implementing the R73s, we just get a worse 29G at the same BR.
I think possibly leave it at 12.7 and review it in a month or two.

Panzer IV G

GRB

3.3 → 3.7

The Panzer IVs with the long barrels, are generally very potent tanks, in the right hands, since unlike the M4 Sherman or T-34, they are a lot more like glass cannons. However they have very potent armaments, meaning that they are able to fight well above their own BR.

Ratel 90 stay 6.3 without any change

The Ratel 90 honestly feels useless outside of its HEAT rounds. The hull is tall and hard to hide, the engine block is massive with no easy weakspot for clean pens, and the sides can literally get shredded by .30 cal fire. Off-road it accelerates like a brick, and on forested uphill terrain it can’t even push past 30 kph. Overall, it just feels worse to play than the M41A1.
