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

Firing at the exact same time maybe, But firing slightly staggered and with different launch angles. Can be very potent. I’ve gotten kills before by firing a Skyflash ST at longer ranges, which forced them to remain more defensive, and then fired a second much closer which they couldnt defend against

Also a lot of people try to MP a 9L. So fire a skyflash and a 9L at the same time and watch them eat the 9L because they just hugged the deck

It could have been like the mig 21 and r3rs. Have it stock available. It does not make the grind harder. Just longer.

The R511 and 2 aim9 could be a stock loadout since you still have guns and quite a good flight model for the BR.

Hello Gaijin team.

Can we please have a BR bracket update for Helicopter EC mode as well like in Air SB (example below)?

There are tons of 9.7s that can’t compete with 11.0 and above, while some 9.0 - 9.3 helicopters are dominating on the game mode vs lower BRs (i.e. the Mi-24A or the UH-1C).

Can we also potentially look into letting helicopters into Air Sim Battles?

I mean just to clear up thing about Black Princes bad mobility: Nobody knew why manifacturer used same tranmission and engine as in Churchill and while still in development concerns were made about this issue, there were aparently some plans to upgrade engine to Rolls-Royce Meteor, but since that would require some extensive redesigning of vehicle, Centurion was starting to be put in service with simularly strong (effective) frontal armor and better mobility and more modern and promising projects asuch as A.45/Fv200 were starting their development there was simply no need and interest to develop archaic and unecesary vehicle such as Black Prince any further.

I mean speed may not have been of concern since infantry tanks only really needed to go as fast as infantry in British doctrine but the fact that there were actual concerns raised about how freakishly underpowered Black Prince was suggest that there were some limits to that.

Mode: Air Realistic

Aircraft: TU-4

Change: 8.0 → 7.3

Reasoning: its a B29 with better turrets everything else is almost the same its unfair for 2 vehicles almost the same to have 1.0 br deference and the 23mm turrets don’t make a big difference in front of 12 0.50CALs both are deadly but in the TU-4 doesn’t matter because you constantly die of Fox 2 you can even die from a Fox 1 in this br bracket. Plus good luck reaching a base even if you survive the enemy there will be no base for you because of all the other jet powered bombers and strike aircraft .

Mode: air realistic
Vehicle: AMX-a1a
11.0-> 10.7
No logic behind this being 11.0 , its payload sucks for base bombing or killing ground targets, its air to air equipment sucks aswell, being in the same range as much faster jets makes you a sitting duck and unlike some slower jets such as the a10 this doesn’t get good agility neither long range payload to compensate for it

Mode: ground realistic
Vehicle: Kugelblitz
7.0->6.7

this vehicle has no features that justify it being at 7.0. It lose its HVAP belt (which the Zerstoerer 45 has for some reason), sits on a Pz.IV chassis and currently faces cold war jets that it is unable to shoot down with no lineup to back it up. At 6.7 it will face less cold war aircraft and will finally be a useful vehicle again

loki v fr bro guess who I am

You HAVE to nerf the XM246, here’s a screenshot of one of my battles today.

Guess what the first guy has been using two times in a row ?
Keep in mind that this is ONE screenshot out of maaaaaany battles where that happens.
It was also a 9.0 battle so it would be perfectly at it’s ease at 8.7

PLS do something about that invulnerable thing !!

why did you reply to me with this ?

oh sry, didn’t mean to, don’t know how it happened

Didn’t even try to notch

the link isnt working for me either how do I see the video

Again, problem is compression. Mig-21 BİS sits at 11.0 with 6 all aspect missiles. Yes they’re garbage R-60s, but still.

r60m is a very good missile at 11.0 (ok so it took me 3 seconds of thinking to realise they are not that good)

I’d rather have an all aspect Aim-9G or R-13.

R-60M is a horrible missile

Is that a thing ?

You can shotgun it so its not that bad
