Planned Battle Rating Changes for February 2025

[MikeyPlayzonYT]

So I assume the IRIAF finally gets R-73s or the ability to carry 6x Fakours. Right? RIGHT?!

Because Gaijin wouldn’t put an F-14A with rear-aspect IR missiles and PD head-on radar against Eurofighters, Rafales, and F-15Es… Surely not.

Air RB - F-14A IRIAF 13.0 > 12.7 Because unless you’re buffing it this patch, it’s not equipped to fight its new matchmaker. I think a solution of adding the R-73E it was successfully tested with and allowing it to use all 6 Fakour slots would be beneficial. If deemed too strong for 13.0, remove the R-27R-1. I also recommend looking into possibly buffing the radar/RWR, as even with its missiles, there are certain standards for 13.0 aircraft that the F-14A airframe from the 70s cannot overcome with the Fakour-90 missiles.

[Mytho-GR1]

No F-14B chamges it is the same BR as the F15A and Su27 but has no IRCCM and lacks an all aspect radar the Phoenixs don’t save it

[cortbowan-psn]

Amazing how the chalice passes the Russian 10.3 lineup again…

[ID_Heaven]

M26(A1) RB 6.7>6.3.
Come on guys. It is worse that KTH and it’s own upgraded versions on the same BR.

[MikeyPlayzonYT]

Oh and the UFO F-16 is now 12.3. That’s totally balanced.

[SoloWing_Makarov]

Promised Su-25 and A-10 spawn changes when? Su-25SM3 and A-10C are a joke at their BRs.
Still not done since May of previous year.

[Toxin]

Will the PT16 get its missing composites and thermals now that it’ll be the same BR as the 2A4? :D

[thexfiles123]

GRB, M18 GMCs should go back to 5.7 not 6.0, been a lot of powercreep and US has no 6.0 lineup, making them really awkward to use in any existing lineup

[hinjanattori]

Air Realistic Battles & Simulator Battles, Mirage 2000D-RMV, 12.7>12.3

This plane is very limited in its air to air armaments to justify being at 12.7. It doesn’t get a useful radar for finding air targets, doesn’t get in-built guns and the external gun pod is placed in an usual location and affects performance, only two IR missiles.

[kr1sp7]

Air Realistic Battles, F-16A OCU. 13.7 > 13.3. Low amount of countermeasures and no HMD, this aircraft is too weak in comparison with aircraft on its BR.

[Morvran]

Vehicle: Tornado F3 Late
Gamemode: Air Sim
Change: 13.3 —> 13.0
Reason: It moved down in RB. When the ICE moved down to 13.0 it moved down in both gamemodes. It is unplayable vs 14.0s and there doesnt seem to be the new brackets expected this change to accomodate 14.0s properly into sim

[Captain_Kii4952]

RB, All M26 variants, including T99: 6.7 → 6.3
There is no reason that the Pershing should be at the same BR as multiple directly superior variants. It is in no way on par with the heavies of 6.7 whilst having similar mobility, and lacks the mobility to act as a competent medium at the BR.

[kirill-cvetk]

RB Ozelot 9.7> 9.3 He has no advantages over his rivals and he perfectly fits into the seitap of Germany at 9.3

[Morvran]

With the introduction of 14.0. It should be possible to add new Sim Brakcets that accomodate 12.3 and 13.3 properly within the sim brackets.

It is rediculous this is another BR change with no proposed SIM changes and especially no new Sim brackets.

Here is my proposal for new Sim brackets to be introduced this update

[sliterok]

why J-7D should play with SU-25SM3 and fight R-73? I think it’s a bit unfair sort of…

[foxtrot19673]

F-20 (RB) 12.7 → 12.3
its worse than the f16 As while sitting at the same br

[MikeyPlayzonYT]

Thank the LORD the F-4C went down atleast.

[Morvran]

Vehicle: Hunter FGA9
Gamemode: Air Sim
BR Change: 9.7 ----> 9.3
Reason: It has almost identical performance to the Hunter F6 (France) and yet sits 0.7 BR higher in SB and 0.3 higher than it does in RB. There is no justification for this BR increase and its BR should be lowered to 9.3

(9.7 is also the same BR as the Hunter F58 which has better AAMs, A better engine, an RWR and CMs)

[Daft909]

This^^^ with the F16A going down, this should follow it

[Mr_Mistick]

Yep, sad to see that the T-80UD isn’t going to 10.7, it’s more armored, faster reloading, better optics, better mobility t72. Love it
