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

Historical reasons, their engines were governed to a power RPM and thus Horsepower and speed,

besides as opposed to the other Tiger IIs, the SLA.16 is only losing 80 hp and not 100hp, and had higher Horsepower to begin with (its only going to be 20hp short (680) of what the standard Tiger IIs were before (700)

Rest in peace F-16A

Did the F-15A ever use Aim-7Ps?

That would be more than enough to allow it to increase in BR freely

MiG-29SMT
13.3>14.0, add R-77-1
Reasoning:
Decompression, plus historical armament upgrade

as part of moving top BR to 15.0 because people can’t be bothered to read more than one post…

speaking of F-16A (FR) and JAS39A
JAS39A is a direct improvement for ARB yet they sit at the same BR
And neither can move up or down.
god I love BR compression.

Mode: Ground Realistic Battles
Vehicle: T-54E1
Br Change: 8.0—>7.7

I dont know… They are so close to being identical, that I dont know if that is necessarily necessary

To be clear. I dont want it to increase with the current BR state. I was just defending it in the case of the decompression that WalletWorrier was suggesting. I doubt it had AIM-7Ps, the 15A was really quite early

Hysterical it took this long for “historical reasons.” Gaijin really likes to pick and choose when history matters.

Those 12.0 phantoms have HMD + Fox-1. 6xAim7+HMD or 4xAim7+HMD+4xAim-9H much better then 6 all aspect fox-2.

You should make suggestions rather than making an argument even if the arguments are valid.

Having aim7 against fix 3 shouldnt be a thing
It has mid radar with no tws and it doesnt even have hmd
Aim9m are nice but it doesnt have df missiles thats why even su27 might be better in df (not that it happens)
The arb meta relying on radar missiles and in that regard f15a is lacking

It should not be abke to see ef2k or rafale

J-11A
13.7>14.3
Reasoning:
Decompression, plus it’s lacking compared to the SM

as part of moving top BR to 15.0 because people can’t be bothered to read more than one post…

Can i ask why the yak28 is lowered to 9.0 in air realistic battle while the french vautour’s stays at 9.0 while being way less effective in battle

it should not be able to face literal flareless planes with the 2 free kills bc of pd radar

I take full responsibility for the SARC 6 pounder getting moved up. Sorry everyone, its just too effective at clubbing seals.

12.0 constantly gets uptiered to 13.0 where it faces f14s and ja 37s on a frequent basis, it does face fox 3.

Aircraft: A-7K

Mode: Air Realistic Battles

BR change: 11.3 → 10.7

Reason: while the A-7K has a much better armament than the previous A-7’s do, the A-7K is still the same slow brick as its brothers and while it does carry Aim-9L’s, it can only carry 2 of them making the ability to use the missile and get kills a difficult endeavor as most planes will easily outrun you or very easily flare the Aim-9L.

Or you have things like F-4J(UK).

Which the Kurnass 2000 would absolutely destroy in a 1v1 with how easy the Skyflash DFs are to defeat.
