Why Swedish tiger II isn’t changed.

its faster than most things, and if you don’t have a missile you’re not killing it really, unless you spend
several minutes setting up a high speed dive to catch it with guns (of which it could still easily run away)
It’s the same reason why F-104s are so annoying to try and fight in subsonics, except the Yak-28B will have a hell of a time trying to kill you
With the Jagdtiger reciving its governed engine, and the Sturer Emil a reload buff, could the Jagdtiger, which has even 2 Loaders also get a reload buff?
Jagdtiger: reload time 23,6 sec → 19,4 sec (T34, previously Sturer Emil)

J-7D 10.7-11.7 aircraft has a high speed , several types of missiles (4 with a 35g overload) for its target, and 72 countermeasures. A5C 10.7-10.0 aircraft does not have a high speed and only has two missiles.A43 black prince 6.0-5.7 lack of speed, low armor against both main shells and high-explosive howitzers like the M109, which destroy them with a single shot. and ineffective shells that are destroyed or do not cause damage

Ground RB - AMX-32 : 9.3 > 9.3 (stay at 9.3 instead of moving up at 9.7)
No need no move this tank, that would not only weaken a good line up,but this tank is already balanced at 9.3.

Marder 1A1: add DM63
20mm HVAP is not even able to kill most light tanks from the front.
It already has the worst ground based ATGMs in the game and only four of them with relatively long reload and very limited launch angles.
It should at least have some firepower, the BMP-1 not only has far superiour missiles but also a gun capable of engaging every other tank frontally.

StuG III Ausf. A: 2.3 → 2.0: The Pz IV Ausf. F1 has full 50mm frontal armor, the StuG III Ausf. A (even tho thats incorrect) has only 30mm Hull armor and no turret, overall in general the average thick armor at 2.0-2.3 is 50mm but for the main drawbacks the StuG III Ausf. A can be placed at 2.0 for greater line ups, as well as to avoid the big Power increase at 3.3 (M4A1, T-34 and Pz IV Ausf. F2) where also the StuG III Ausf. F is.

Any planned Br reduce for Shenyang F-5? It is still at 9.3 in air rb, even the F3H got a 9.0 br, and it’s gonna fight against the F106A! I really don’t think it’s suitable for such a high Br.

One of the reports linked and used to change the engine of the Tiger II to govern it to 600HP @ 2500 RPM is for the Tiger Ausf. E however the Tiger Ausf. E isn’t being changed, the Tiger Ausf. E should be included in these changes too.

Softstat change suggestions:
5 cm KwK 38 L/42 Aced Max Crew Reload Speed of currently 4.0 Sec lowering to 3.0 or 3.3 Seconds (the fastest). It is a good/mediocre gun, with good Penetration (80mm) at relatively low Velocity (685m/s), but even the fastest reload is 4.0 Seconds.
For comparisson the other guns of similar Performance and size have much faster reloads with, including 1 and 2 men turrets, while the 5 cm KwK 38 L/42 (on Pz III Ausf.F and J as well as Pz.Sp.Wg. P204(f) KwK), it also has a Dedicated loader (and on the Pz III Ausf.J even nerfed by a Ready rack):
37mm M3/M5/M6 guns 2.9 Sec
75mm M2 3.3 Sec
45mm 20-K 2.9 sec (on T-80 even 2.5 sec)
76,2 mm 1902/30 4.3 sec
76,2 mm KT-28 4.0 sec
4 cm QF 2 pdr 2.8 sec
4,7 cm QF 3 pdr 3.0 sec
5,7 cm Type 97 3.3 sec
4,7 cm Type 1 3.3 sec
4 cm MAVAG 41.M 40/51 2.8 sec
4,7 cm 47/32 2.9-3.0 sec
4,7 cm 47/40 3.3 sec
4,7 cm SA 35 L/32 3.0 Sec (with Dedicated loader, without 4.0 sec (1 man turret))
4,7 cm SA 37 3.0 sec

AMX-32 should stay at 9.3, its characteristics are not worthy of moving up to 9.7 and this change is notable for me as it should not occur.

Ground RB - AMX-13 (FL11) : 4.3 > 4.0 or 3.7.
This tank is not better than the US M24 or the AMX-13-M24, while it’s BR is way too high. It should be decreased to either 4.0, or even 3.7 like the two other one. The gun is also very wobbly, no point using the speed at your advantage if you are waiting a long time for your gun to stabilize everytime you stop.

The 2 cm KwK 30/38 L/65 on AA vehicles such as Sd.Kfz.222 (and Chinese), Sd.Kfz.234/1 and Sd.Kfz.140/1 from 6 → 3 sec reload like the 2 cm Flak 38 L/65, These Vehicles are dual Purpose AA vehicles, have a Dedicated loader next to the gun (unlike Pz II Ausf.C and F where he is in the hull and Needs to reach up) and only have 10 round Magazins unlike the 20 round Magazins on the Flaks. Effectively giving it 1/4s effectiveness (compared to the Flakpanzer 38(t))
IRL by the manual and weapon design, the gun stayes open after the last shot and the magazin is automatically ejected, ready to insert a new magazin to directly continue fireing.

hmm, looks like I’m wrong about the popularity of this plane.
However, my original point about F-14A having no real competition at 12.3 still stays valid.
T18E2 RGB 3.0 → 3.7/4.0 It has more armor, a stronger gun and comparable Speed and cant be easily destroyed with even HMGs and lighter cannons, it has so much armor with angle that frontally some cant penetrate it at all (like the italian guns), compared to the Sd.Kfz.234/2 which allready sits at 3.7, which has only 30mm (angled) armor, with the rest only 8-14,5mm and a weaker gun.

Panzer IV Ausf.E GRB 2.0 → 1.7
It is basically in between the Pz IV Ausf. C and F1, tho at the same Br as F1, even tho it only has mere 30mm frontal turret armor, and mostly 20mm side and back armor. While it has 10mm more Frontal hull protection, however that has holes with just 30mm. There isnt really a reason to play the E over the F1, as you cant even properly angle, because of the 20mm side, which can even be penetrated by relatively more powerfull 37mm guns.

Sea Hawk Mk.50/Mk.100
Air realistic
It should stay at 8.0
The Sea Hawk is a fairly balanced aircraft at 8.0 already. It is good in a downtier, but also challenging in an uptier. Reason for that is its relatively slow speed compared to the 8.3+ aircraft. The Sabres and the MiGs are already faster and better.
Raising it to 8.3 would make it face even more superior aircraft, up to the supersonics like the F-104s, against which it cannot do anything.
The Sea Hawk should stay at 8.0, even with the Sidewinders.

Bf 110 C-6 GRB (Not Air) 3.0 → 2.3 or 2.0
Reason: The better C-7 is 2.7 which is better because: Armored glass, can carry bombs and has 2x 20mm Mg FF/M and faster while the C-6 cant have bombs has no 20mm and is fixed with the 30mm Mk 101. In comparison the Hs 129 B-2 which is also at 2.3 has more armor, 2x 20mm Mg 151/20 and 2x Mg 17 (instead of 4x Mg 17) and a Mk 103 with 100 instead of 60 rounds and higher fire rate. It overall exchanges most of it offencive firepower for a better flightperformance. It is in comparisson to other planes in ist class also rather limited in armor, beeing limited to 4x MGs and 1x cannon with limited ammo. In AIR RB it can stay at 3.0 i suppose, as a bomber hunter with Minengeschoss.
