You mean in regards to the changes that was only announced for ground?
Not a picture, but it’s stated here: Photos of World's last active service F-14 Tomcat jets overhauled in Iran - The Aviationist
GRB
Type 81 (C)
11.3 > 11.7
Reason: Restore full 35G overload to the missile, improve locking to what its supposed to be (10km)
Japan requires a top tier SPAA
F-16A at 12.3
guys, for the love of god, stop drinking methanol

Makes zero sense with any degree of realism in mind, like you are spawning them somewhere they physically would not be able to reach with their fuel. You’d have to reduce max fuel by 1m for this to make sense and that defeats the purpose almost. The game simply requires decompression and that is the only solution.
Pz. IV Ausf. F2, Ausf. G (L/43 tanks)
RB
3.3 → 3.7
The firepower is overkill for its BR. While its armor is suboptimal, the mobility and fire controls remain fairly strong for its tier. There is no need for 2.3 tanks to face a long 75 on a stable platform. Moreover, the improved armor protection of the Ausf. G, especially with add-on tracks, makes it actually resistant to many of its contemporary medium tanks (T-34, M4) at some ranges.
These tanks can perform similarly to the current Ausf. J/Befehlswagen, which is hampered compared to other L/48 variants (Ausf. H, Italian Ausf. G) which retain a superior turret traverse system.

I just finished spading it and i can confidently say that you can only do ANYTHING if the airspace is uncontested. If there are any other planes or helicopters in the air, you are dead. There is nothing you can do other than evade and pray for player incompetence. Not to mention, if you get hit with a single bullet, your entire weapons system dies.
Currently struggling through the Tzefa B now as well. It’s at a higher BR, but without the Lahatut’s mobility it’s really hard to do well in it.
That’s like a triple-layered assumption. The answer is decompression, not compression. Putting the F-16A at 12.3 is massive compression.

Mode: Air RB
Vehicle: F-14A Early
Change: AIM-9H —> AIM-9L
Reason: At 12.7 this is the highest BR vehicle in the game that lacks all aspect heat seeking missiles, while many vehicles at similar battle ratings not only carry all aspect heat seeking missiles, but also IRCCM heat seeking missiles. Having access to the AIM-9L would still be an reasonable disadvantage at 12.7 to compensate for its ability to carry Phoenixes at 12.7, especially considering the poor flight performance and RWR in comparison to similar BR’ed aircraft such as F-16, MiG-29, and Mirage-2000C.

Even with 10km lock it cant hit a smart CAS player so it would simply prevent the 11.3 lineup from having viable spaa
Air Simulator Battles, Kfir Canard, 11.0 > 10.7
Situational awareness is limited in simulator battles compared to realistic battles. Kfir canard suffers severely from this lack of situational awareness. It has no viable radar to find / IFF enemy planes, RWR is very limited without any track / launch warning /J band detection, has only two rear-aspect only IR missiles with limited G-overload, oddly placed countermeasures.
Its main competition is Mig-21 bis platforms with a usable radar for the BR (with IFF and invisible to Kfir’s radar), more and better placed countermeasures, 6 all-aspect IR missiles with high G-overload.
This doesn’t seem balanced. Please reduce the battle rating of Kfir Canard in SB to 10.7.
I agree, what we need most is decompression.
Earlier I’ve made a spreadsheet of my vision of good top tier BRs, not ideal and based on my point of view

the f104asa will no longer face 12.3 gank
Give Strikers and Bombers their air spawn, 500m above the airfield.
The game has advanced enough that people can easily intercept Strikers and Bombers. Enough missiles, enough top speed jets are available at every rank and BR MM.

Ground RB
T-90M
12.0 > 11.7
Reason: Reload rate + no reverse speed and low mobility and lack of roof armor make the tank lacking.
Know what’s worse than that? Putting it at 12.3…
Pz. IV Ausf. H, Ausf. G (Italy) (L/48 tanks, except J)
RB
3.7 → 4.0
These tanks are the best of the Panzer IV family, with the best armor protection (especially the Ausf. H) and firepower while retaining superior fire-controls over the later Ausf J/Bfw. They should be a higher BR than the Ausf. J (currently 3.7) and also are comparable opponents to the T-34s w/ F-34 and the M4A2 Sherman, which it once shared a BR with. The armor protection in particular is improved enough to be challenging for some of the weaker main guns at its current BR (F-34, 75mm M3, ZiS-5) to struggle even at short range, which is only exacerbated when fighting weaker opponents at 2.7. It is unreasonable for a tank like the Chi-He or M15/42 to fight a Pz. IV H, as they have zero chance in any engagement.

it’s armor is pretty good hull down, no reason to make it 11.7.
I have done similar projects, the issue is 99% of players don’t care or will actively fight against your efforts to decompress
Know whats even worse that that? putting it at 12.0 (LOL)
