Planned Battle Rating Changes for February 2025

The SIDAM 25 from RB BR of 8.3 to 7.3.
It’s worse than all 8.0 and above SPAA. No Radar, SLOW, carries very few AP rounds for ground vehicles. It’s most direct counterpart in capability is the M163 which is 7.3.

Quit punishing Italy players for being more skilled than USA, Germany, and Russia players. (All publicly available stats support this.)

The R2Y2s should be moved down, all 3 version from 8.0 → 7.3
Reason: It’s outclassed by pretty much everything else in game, the cannons have been nerfed since its in 8.0 and it’s unusable where it currently sitting.

Straight up lie. On the rest I can agree

I also support the BR (Ground RB) for the SIDAM 25 Mistral to go from 9.7 >>> 9.3.

The SIDAM 25 Mistral has the same issues as the SIDAM 25. No radar, very little AP ammo, slow. Compared to every other 9.7 SPAA it is significantly worse. The Gepard 1A2 and the SIDAM 25 Mistral being the same BR only proves what everyone knows, the average Germany player is an unskilled player. The most similar vehicle to the SIDAM 25 Mistral is the Machbet, which is 9.3.

Mode: Air RB
Vehicle: F-16A OCU (Japan)
Change: 13.7 > 13.0 + Removal of AIM-120 missiles + Radar changed to AN/APG-66(V)1 + do not add HMD
Reason: Historical inaccuracies:

  • The aircraft never carried AMRAAMs IRL, nor was it ever capable of using them.
  • The “AN/APG-66S” radar does not exist. It is the product of a typo on this blog.

See the detailed bug report linked in my previous comment for more information.

Air RB suggestions

Mig-29SMT 13.3 → 13.0, weak missile loadout, bad Flight Model

Mirage 2000 CS5 Add Magic 2s to inner pylons to compensate for BR increase

F8u2 Revert br decrease

JAS 39c (South Africa) 13.7 → 13.3, Derbys vastly inferior to AMRAAMs

GRB otomatic 11.3>10.7 not enough firing range to be an effective SPAA with its current BR and too little ammunition to do anti-tank correctly.

Its very similar to the 105 Tiger.

Same pen, Same reload, Tiger 105 has 2x HE filler, 105 has slightly better power to weight, Better hull armor, Range finder and the mantlet for the gun covers a larger area making the penable spot on the face smaller than the normal one, The only advantage the T29 has over it is .50’s and a slightly more trolly mantlet if shooting the edges of it.

They should both stay where they are.

Than you for the reminder

ARB Tornado (IDS (1995)/GR1/IDS ASSTA1) 11.7>11.3
in ARB there is no difference between tornado 11.7 and 11.3 in terms of gameplay.

BMP-2 can’t fire on the move and it’s missile drops when launched by quite a bit.
BMP-3 needs 26s to reload it’s ATGM and that’s kind of a lot.
All of them fire APDS at 82mm of pen.

There’re no BMPs with 6 crew.

I doubt a hit like that would kill a Bradley or something like that. You barely missed the track.

Ive had this happen to me too

your insane if you think the sm should be 8.0 lmao

The M60A1 AOS has the benefit of an optical rangefinder, something the T-62 lacks. They have comparable mobility and armour. Yes, 3BM3 and 3BM4 both beat M728 in flat pen, but 3BM4 has poorer ricochet angles and the “upgraded” 3BM3 has less 60° pen. The T-62 has a slower reload also.

I don’t see any fundamental imbalance with them being at the same BR. If the Object 140 and Vickers Mk. 3 can both sit at 8.3, I don’t see how the T-62 would somehow be too powerful there.

MiG-23M

Air AB : 11.3 → 11.0

Air RB : 11.0 → 10.7

Air SB : 11.0 → 10.7

I need R-60 exchange R-60M only

I don’t recall the 105 having anywhere near the same protection as the T29.

ARB/GRB BI 6.7 > 7.3
ridiculously fast, while maintaining decent mobility and powerful guns. Its low fuel load is not really a problem because consumption drops very quickly when throttle is lowered.

They are over BR. The Somua is not under BR.
