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

nah just release it and then we will update it… I want decompression of Air NOW.

looking at the max AoA isnt comparing flightmodels there is more to it than ITR

In the absence of a decompression, the next best thing is just trying to balance the tanks at top tier.

Reload rate advantages were the default for a while for things like the CR2 and Type 90/type 10 but in recent years seems to have been forgotten.

It’s no 279, but it still has the 14.5mm that make short work of lights or Turms III turrets. Plus at 8.3, you can pair with PT-76-57. Fun-fun. Shame I missed out on getting that damn coupon in the KV-7 event, lol.

For the draken it isnt. Id take the mig19 airframe over the drakens any day of the week but since the draken gets 9js the main goal is to get the nose around asap

You are absolutely right.

At the same time, isnt it likely that plane with that much better ITR will have other aspects of its FM better than the compared planes?

A higher ITR can sometimes mean an inversely lower STR and sometimes STR is more valuable than ITR.

Though generally an aircraft with good ITR probably has attributes that support a good overall dogfighter

the F-18 has great ITR but both the F-15 and F-16 have better STR and can win a dogfight with that

also the SEP lines can also be used tu judge energy retention and energy gain

So to conclude, while ITR isnt everything, the J35XS is better tha the compared planes?

the draken actually has the worst STR out of all of them

it also has really bad energy regain

it also trades in energy for position the worst

so in conclusion the J-35 is only able to pull alot of AoA once but it is unable to effectively regain it

Oh no, sterile graphs that do not correspond to reality in War Thunder) Where is the speed graph in the turn after the first lap? Surely the Draken will have ±280 km/340 km, while the others will have 500+. It is necessary to show the graph of the first lap turn when the Draken can turn towards the enemy, but at the cost of all its speed… And at the same time, it is necessary to hit with one cannon, which is located at the root of the wing)) You are misleading people in a clever way. For some reason, it looks like a wonderful aircraft on the graphs, but in battle it will never reach 1423 km/h… Where is the engine thrust to weight graph for each of them? After all, you have already been answered with your own graphs…

the last thing you would ever want to do in a draken is dogfight someone

Fair enough

isnt that the whole point of the draken? the first turn? you can get guns on target very easily in the first turn, and even if you lose that first chance… the draken always has incredible nose authority at pretty much any speed

also you get 6 free kills against flareless planes

lies

Isnt that literally what i said earlier…

hey man, i just posted, as you said, sterile graphs, and then listened to more experienced player explain it to me.

On the other hand, theres you, saying J35XS needs to go down to 9.7, with nothing but vibes behind your argument.

Mode: Ground Realistic Battles
Vehicle: Q-5L
BR Change: 10.3 → 11.0

Reasoning:
The plane in question got two 500kg laser guided bombs in addition to a thermal targeting pot, it is completely obsured that this vehicle is near 11.0 rather then 10.3 in ground realistic battles. The American F111A, also a dedicated ground strike aircraft, at the same BR does even get laser guided bombs or a thermal targeting pot. This plane, the Q-5L, got both.
In addition to this fact, this plane, the Chinese Q-5L is obscenely fast and can clime to altitudes that even missiles are incapable of getting close to. In my testing if you clime high and enter the battlefield, even the radar of most SPAAs can’t pick this plane up nor can they engage it.
In summery there is no nation in the game with a plane that can get close to this, ie. the adjustment to BR is appropriate and should be done for players enjoyment quickly.

Jaguar Gr1A has 2x Laser GBUs at 10.3

dw i have double your battles in it

I don’t have the Pt-76-56 and that, is actually an OP vehicle compared to the bmd-4M / bmp-3

Edit: I had the tickets for the IS-7 but only like 10 people of millions won. Good luck lol.

KV-7 is okay, after the br increase, along with the KV-1E they’re kinda bad now. Because why should a heavy tank be a heavy tank?
