Planned Battle Rating Changes for February 2025

Antelope TC-1
RB
10.3 → 10.0

With the Israeli I-Chaparral moving down to 9.7, this vehicle probably can move down to 10.0 as well. The TC-1L missiles are superior to the MIM-72G, but the terrible platform and lack of a search radar still drags this vehicle down immensely.

Same old rubbish. SPAA desperately need to counter CAS in GRB gets used for attacking other ground vehicles and is rated on that. It gets moved leaving the nation with no SPAA at ceratin BRs.
They keep doing it and can’t help themselves

Yeah, but most 12.0s aren’t equipped to fight the IRIAF either, and this plane at 13.0 wouldn’t be the only one that’s not capable of going head-to-head with 14.0s

What are you talking about? The F-5C was grossly overmatched at 11.0. Are you seriously trying to suggest that its performance and guns alone qualify it to go up against something like the F-4S, MiG-23ML and Mirage F1C? Does it make sense that it was at the same BR as the F-5E with its significantly better engines and AIM-9Js? The F-5C nowhere close to being unkillable unless it faces a full downtier or faces incompetent players. It’s fine exactly where it is until the BRs are decompressed.

It at least has Fakours which are actually better than a few fox 3s if used well, that at least is something going for it, so yes

T-72A, T-72M1, ZTZ96
RB
9.3 → 9.7

This change has been overdue for sometime, especially as the various rounds of BR decompression have had their time to settle in. These tanks are clearly superior to several of the “upgraded” MBTs also found at 9.3 (e.g. CM11, Leopard 1A5) as well as some other contemporaries, such as MBT/KPz 70. All of these tanks wield incredible firepower (in 3BM42 and Type 85-1) that makes them fightable against the current 10.7 vehicles such as Leopard 2A4 or M1 Abrams, while also having some armor that can actually take a hit in return (unlike other 9.3 MBTs).

The first thing I would do would be to raise the Br to at least 14 in GF. Then balance the tanks correctly, with the bullets with their realistic damage and give the tanks the bullets they historically used, once all this is done the tanks could be separated into the different Br without them being unbalanced games.

What about T34? Or then T29 at higher BR? This has too many followup changes that would have to happen.

The namer is already nerfed enough considering its top speed is 33 which makes its fun useless because you can’t get to spots to actually use it, it’s arguably worse than the namer 30 as it has a easier to hit turret and less fun depression, also it still only has 1 belt of ammo that when hit makes the tank completely useless in other words it’s the worst light tank at any br especially at 11.0 where the kf41 is by far much better

Chinese A-5C
10.7 → 10.3 ARB

The A-5C is kinda a victim of power creep. Yes, it was 100% busted at 10.0, but it is a 9.7 airframe (the Q-5L is the same flight model) that gets bumped a whole BR cause it has 2 decently good missiles. Magic 1s are great, but warranting an entire 1.0+ up for two is excessive.

Su17M2 itself doesnt have CMs nor a good FM, if you support compression in some areas (downtiering f4c) at least be consistent

Guys just make a poll and let’s downvote the crap patch till they rethink it.

Then it needs its six Fakour-90s. Going up against 13.7s and 14.0s with just R-27R1s, rear aspect AIM-9Ps and only 60 countermeasures is crazy. The standoff ability that the Fakours give it will be its only real advantage.

GRB JA37C 11.0-10.3.
Only A2G weapon is CCIP rocket pods, would be very helpful in CAP operations without any meaningful CAS addition. (Also if you could give a lookover of all swedish jets in GRB it would be nice)

The reason they get air spawns is because under certain configurations they basically can’t take off

Have to agree with this. I see more uptiers playing 5.7 US than I do downtiers and your only real tactics against it are CAS or hoping you can get a flank.

Air-RB ,A1A AMX 11.3 → 11.0
At current state the AMX is already weaker than its competition , being too slow to bomb bases , too weak Air-Air capacity with very inconsistent missiles aswell as not having that many flares to dodge many missiles , im being very generous to say that at 11.0 this would have some chance of having fun while flying this because this is just a overtiered 10.7 vehicle , now with these proposed changes it would just make this plane completly usless , on same BR you get better planes already , if those changes go foward on full uptiers its now not only fighting F14’s , its also able to face F16’s ,

I don’t think it’s fair for skyflashes and a PD radar to be at 10.3 for anti air

ZSD63 PG87, Phong kong T-34
Switch positions and ranks in the research tree, such that Phong kong T-34 is Rank III and ZSD63 is Rank IV

With the ZSD63 moving up to a higher BR than the Phong kong, it makes sense for it to be placed later in the research tree. This is also sensible as the Soviet premium Phong kong is already Rank III.

So what about T29 and T34?
