Planned Battle Rating Changes for February 2025

Ground Realistic

Tortoise

6.7 → 6.3

While it is like a bunker that drives around, and have a gun that can do decent amount of damage for a solid shot. Its armor just doesn’t hold up at the current BR it have. It have multiple weakspots that are impossible to cover all at the same time.

With out any changes to the way APHE currently works, it is far to easy to instantly kill the tank by shooting its machine-gun turret.

Ground RB, AMX-13 (FL11) : 4.3 > 4.0 (or even 3.7 like in the past).

This thing is not better than the M24 or the AMX-13-M24, while it’s BR is way too high. It should be decreased to either 4.0 or 3.7 like the two other one.

It being good does not mean it should be put in a place where it would be useless

100% backwards lol.
Nobody seems to mention the MICA (this missile is bats**t crazy)
120B is MUCH better than the farkour.

Everyone and their mother has said the Su-34 is INSANE, but we will see no changes there.
Like you said, it has 4x Farkours, and then rear aspect horrible AIMs, yet its now gone to 13.0 from what, 12.3 to 12.7 now??

P-51D-10
RB
4.3 → 4.0
its literally the same as the D20 but for some reason at a higher br lol

I know
Give it better round regardless because the new gaijin calculator murder them rounds(eg xm578e1,m735,…)

they could give it its actual APHE, the QF 75mm was built to use the same ammunition as the sherman, the only reason it has solid shot in game is that many M61 shells were filled with concrete for safety due to early issues with the fuzes, this would give other tanks with the QF 75mm much greater lethality, such as the Valentine Mk.XI, Cromwell V

Not me, so many people called for it to go up. Also it is “Fatter” at least from every other source I’m seeing.

They’re talking about the R-27EA. The EA goes Mach 6.6 (allegedly) The Fakour can barely get to Mach 5 when launched at Mach 2.2. That’s what they mean. Hope this helps bud.

ZSU’s radar is pretty godawful.
Ozelot has IRST that serves as a radar and it also has great thermals.

Mistrals are actually worse than Stingers.

More like ~3km.

Vehicle - UH-1B Japan
Mode - GRB
BR - 7.7 → 7.3

Much like the AB 205 A-1, with the new damge model you cant do much against anything without your heil taking 2 bullets and not being able to fire your rockets, also alot of light tanks have been added with auto cannons that completly nerf your early game rocket rush complelty ie BTR-80A/Fox/XM800T

I do play other nations. Like France’s LeClercs. They are far better than the Abrams. Sweden and Germany dominate top tier gorund battles to the point that if you arent on a team with them, you will moat likely lose every time. The Merkava, T-80s/T-90s, and Challengers are fine or seem relatively balanced. I dont really see Ariete’s struggling but I wont make a definitive statement on them. But the Abrams are awful.

its not just being good its being EXTREMLY overpowered so it makes it fair to make this plane a little worse
dont worry you still will be OP when simply because of how many 12.0 planes there are, u will hardly see 13.7

FV102 Striker

8.3 → 8.0 + add spotting

It is part of the CVR(T) family, where the R quite litterally stands for Reconnaissance. It is a scouting vehicle, that doens’t have the ability to scout. At the same time, it is like an alternative to the Swingfire vehicle, since it trades the ability of being able to be hull down for a lot more mobility.

Currently as it is ingame, it is very vulnerable when it tries to fire its missiles at a target, since you need to expose as much of your vehicle and you currently need to do.

Air RB, Ju 388 J. 4.3 > 3.0
This is an event vehicle and was never popular, so after one BR change from 4.7 to 4.3, this aircraft was forgotten. This aircraft needs a drastic reduction in its BR because the BR at which it was introduced was extremely overrated. In short, it is a slightly better Ju 88 C-6, which is at 2.3.

detailed reason (very important for everyone who has never played this aircraft):

It’s a slow and heavy aircraft with average weapons for its size and low ammo capacity, even compared to light aircraft. The Ju 88 C-6 (2.3) is very similar and suffers from the same issues. Both have downward-angled guns and their rudder is bad for vertical aiming. Just a little maneuvering by the enemy makes it impossible for you to hit them. Compared to the Ju 88 C-6, the Ju 388 J has more engine power and more powerful guns. But the drawbacks are too substantial and are cumulating in a very negative way:

examples
  • Downward-angled guns + low-velocity 30 mm
    Two bad factors that make each other even worse.
  • Downward-angled guns + weak rudder
    It is already harder to aim horizontally. Most players will not engage in a head-on with the Junkers, so you have to try to hit them while they are evading (vertical aiming). Because your rudder is too weak to make quick adjustments, you have to roll your aircraft. Now imagine trying to aim a downward-angled gun while rolling. Hitting an aircraft becomes almost impossible.
  • Low and rare chances of hitting an aircraft + low ammo per gun
    Two conflicting limitations: You have to take every small chance of landing a hit, but you can’t spare the ammo for it.

All that comes on top of the low speed, climbrate, turnrate and rollrate.

All the peculiar limitations of these aircraft and their role in the game as bomber-hunters that can’t hunt bombers due to a way too low airspawn and horrible climb rate still apply. Even with an airspawn, fighters that take off from the airfield will reach bomber height twice as fast! So you are forced to fight the fighters, which can always easily avoid you. Overall, the improvements of the Ju 388 J over the Ju 88 C-6 are small and don’t affect the aircraft’s performance by much.

PS: Don’t get fooled by the stat card of the Ju 388 J:

  1. Two of four 20mm cannons with 400 rounds are “Schräge Musik” (in WT, dead weight).
  2. 612 km/h at 10,600m!!! - the game doesn’t even last long enough to reach that altitude. At lower altitudes, your speed is very similar to that of the Do 217 N or Ju 88 C-6.

Please don’t ignore this post and don’t forget about the existence of these aircraft.

MBT2000,RB BR11.0>10.7,its dtc10-125 should be removed and sit in lower br

Me when I make stuff up.

I’ve used all of the missiles listed save for the MICA-ERs, which Rafales club lobbies with so i seriously doubt its somehow that much worse

People called for it to go up because it interrupted them flying straight for 5 minutes to go bomb a base. That doesn’t mean it should ACTUALLY go up.
