Planned Battle Rating Changes for February 2025

It shouldn’t go lower unless they remove the 9Ms.

Never had that. Could only fit guided or unguided bombs on that pylon. its not until the Gripen E that it got A2A on that Hardpoint

so why not bring it down a notch as well to 9.7? never said they have to be the same br

It’s still baffling to me they have not given the 39C its tip AMRAAMs.

I would love to have a Gripen at 12.3 with 9-Ls.

Which is imo how it should have come.

No HMD, Aim-9Ls and maybe no BOL at the same BR and in the same Update as the F-16C. With the Gripen C then coming in the december update.

This is a TERRIBLE idea, the J35D would essentially turn into an F-1 that turns substantially better at a much better BR. Even the F-1 as it stands is absolutely amazing and possibly overpowered.

Gaijin just cares so much about Sweden.

The Draken flight model is terrible.

Because the J35XS has a better loadout than the 11.0 F-104s, and it shouldn’t be a full BR lower.

And the J35D might be a bit good at 9.7 as well.

The Draken has horrendous energy retention, and horrible acceleration.

Considering the MIG-21SMT is going to 10.3 the J35XS should also go to 10.3

The MIG-21SMT outperforms the J35XS in every single aspect.

And it doesn’t deserve 9.7, especially when the J35A with only 9Bs is going to be 9.3.

2 wrongs don’t make a right.

It’s too good to be shoved at as low of a BR as Snail is placing them. They should be as follows and no lower:

J 35A: 9.7 (it’s not a 9.3 plane by any stretch)

J 35D: 10.0 (10.3 is too high and it’s comparable to F-1)

J 35XS: 10.7 (6 AIM-9P, some countermeasures. This has the same kit as an 11.3 starfighter.)

MiG-21SMT moving down is a laughably bad choice by Gaijin. It’s already one of the best 10.7s. “But J-7D is 10.7!!!” Yeah and it’s undertiered.

It cant supercruise so idk where this came from

I agree on the ariete on staying where its at as it does have the best dogfighting capabilities and can easily dodge most missiles it faces. only gripe i have would be ammo capacity and no ap ammo

guys it has to go down to 9.3 so it wont suffer fighting 10.3s in a full uptier :)))))))

We need decompression. I dont think the J-7D should be 10.7 but here we are. At least the SMT shouldnt be the same br as the 7D

IMO, it is a diabolical take of Gaijin for sending J35A to 9.3 while keeping Milan on 9.7.

Milan itself is also not a bad plane (just uncomfortable compared to Mirage 3C friends on 10.0), though.
Compared to its nearest counterparts, J35A on 9.3 will fly like a UFO.
