Game mode (air combat), vehicle name: J-5 export type, 9.3→9.0, the reason for the change: the comparison of the same br is basically supersonic, and compare with combat ability of J-5 is extremely excellent, the comparison of 9.0 German Sabre, both have afterburner and missiles, the configuration is the same, the gun and the gun load is even worse, turning at low speed slightly stronger than the German Sabre but the roll is far worse than the German Sabre

T77E1, same as going on 4.0 Raise it rank 3 , instead 2.
BTR-152 example is soviet same style MG AA , and it’s rank 3 on br 4.0
Foldering M19A1 and M42 on japan AA tree, same as american tech tree.

Ayit 9.3 up to 9.7.
The Ayit is already competent in a full uptier, when downtiered it absolutely seal clubs. The FM is better than expected and does quite well in dogfights, and has a easy time avoiding most jets if you keep it fast due to your insane roll rate
Air RB, F-15C (USA). 13.7>14.0.
BR 12.7 upwards is in dire need of further decompression. Most aircraft starting from BR 12.7 need to be adjusted upward by at least one, if not two, increments- including this one. It goes up alongside the Japanese & Israeli variants (per rules, see separate posts).
Air RB, F-15J [M] (USA). 13.7>14.0.

** Its supersonic at a BR where a lot of aircraft are not supersonic*
False. Except for subsonic strike aircraft, most of the fighters it will face are supersonic. Sees frequent uptiers to 11 and above where most aircraft are supersonic
** It has some of the best guns in the game*
Only useful in close quarters and not at all an advantage against players who know how to use all aspect IR or SARH missiles in head ons.
** It turns extremely well and can out dogfight most aircraft*
Its only real strength that can be easily nullified if opposing fighters bnz and use previously mentioned all aspect and SARH missiles properly. Doesn’t apply to subsonics. You’re also very vulnerable to being third partied by enemies as you maneuver onto enemies’ tails. Heavily dependent on player incompetence.
** Its highly resistant to damage, and can shrug hits that would render most aircraft dead or unflyable*
Completely wrong. Missile hits always result in severe damage or death unless countered effectively. Partially true when it comes to 20mm. Definitely not 27 or 30mm.
** It’s IR signature is so low, that some missiles can barely acquire a lock (Its colder on full AB than an F-117)*
Completely wrong. As previously mentioned even R-60MKs can easily gain lock in every aspect.
** Due to its cold signature, it can 1 flare defeat most missiles*
Irrelevant. Every fighter with countermeasures can defeat IR missiles if they’re seen in time
** including IRCCM missiles*
So wrong that I’m not even going to dignify this with a counter
As mentioned multiple times, overall decompression is the answer. The F-5C is fine where it is for now
I think 11.7 is better because at 12.0 sits the F4S with 4 aim7f which are currently a lot more meta than the phytons

F-16A OCU - 13.7 down to 13.3
Lacking HMS doesn’t make it on par with the other 13.7’s. On top of that it has a very small countermeasure count for top tier. It is easily the worst 13.7 right now.

Kurnass 2000 Air realistic battles 12.3 >12.0 its a phantom with the same armament as f16a and worse performance, it shouldn’t be at the same br.

FGR.2 / FG.1 - 12.0 to 11.7
Both of them are considerably inferior to the other 12.0 phantoms by lacking Aim-7F and HMS. These only carry Aim-7E2 and have no business being 12.0.

It does have a lower heat sig than the F-117, it’s been tested and proven.
Plus, you can instantly flare any all aspect missile coming at you, and you can dodge or avoid almost every sarh too.
Not always. PL-5Bs and PL-7s are nearly impossible to flare below 0.4 KMs, but F-5s do that very easily.
Ideally you wouldn’t be hit by IR aams in headons of you pre-flare.
I would have many more suggestions if we could up the top air RB from 14.0 to at least 14.3.
There are many jets that I feel that cannot be properly balanced due to compression.
Some examples are:
F-14B
J-11A
F-16A OCU
F-16A (french one at 13.0)
F-16AM
Netz
F-16D

Move the aphe on the rank 2 and 3 Sweden tanks to rank 2 or 1.
Not always true with missiles having IRCCM like Magic 2s. For those without, it applies to every fighter that sees them in time and pre-flares or flares and maneuvers. Doesn’t make the F-5C special
Heavily situation and terrain dependent. Doesn’t change the fact that you’re put totally on the defensive with no move other than to dodge and hope the enemy player makes the mistake of turning to engage.
That applies to literally any IR missile that’s AIM-9J or better. Can even apply to Es if it’s an aircraft with a supernova engine like the F-111 or Su-22.
This was in reference to the guns in head ons. Pre-flaring and flying straight at the enemy will not work if they manage to get a lock on you in between flare pops. Flying straight at them is the only way you can get guns to hit in head ons.
Personally the Kugelblitz deserves to go down to 6.7 or 6.3. Its shells aren’t that good at taking out tanks at this br anyways but in general the only upside it has is that its an encloses SPAA. Other than that its just a panzer 4 hull at currently 7.0
Its also the only 7.0 tank in the german tech tree and ultimately fighting cold war jets due to frequent uptiers. I think it deserves to fight alongside its ww2 brothers and fill up the lineup next to the king tigers instead of standing alone

f-20 must be 12,0
It’s a very difficult plane to play right now.

Mirage 2000C-S4 should go to 12.7 if the 16A is coming to 12.3
Gaijin should chekc this thread from Naval forum.
