Planned Battle Rating changes for January 2024

Heck yes, that 12.7 was really needed.
As mush as i love getting like k/d of 2 almost every game in ARB and an average of k/d 6 in AAB, The JAS39 was too op at 12.3.

I do wonder how the F-5E will be since it’s going back up to 11.0

(RB) Yak-141: 12.0 ->12.3 (give it a full R-27ER/ET loadout and R-73s)
(RB) MiG-29 (9-13): 12.0 → 12.3 (give it R-73s)
Both of these planes have great potential but are very much dragged down by their extremely subpar IR missiles. The MiG-29 (9-13) in particular could really use R-73s to become the SMT’s WVR-focused sidegrade, akin to the MiG-29G that’s staying at 12.3, with worse avionics but better flight performance (and, soon, no R-77s, which would completely justify its and the G’s lower BR).
(RB) F-15 (all): 12.3 → 12.7
The plane has cracked flight performance only second to the Gripen, the F-16s and the Mirage 4000 and carries the same missiles as the F-16C, it just doesn’t make sense for it to stay at 12.3 in its current state.

And nothing to fill that ever increasing BR gap

If J8F receive the PL-11 missile I will have no felling it be BR12.0, but it not, ONLY HMD and PL-8 missile,bad delta wing,no BVR capability, it can hardly against the gen3 jet fighter. even he have no good cas.

It’ll be fine. Even if they weren’t raising the max BR 11.0 is pretty much uptier proof.

also the vanilla M1 and M1KVT need M833 shell to match for 10.3 MBTs like T80b and Leo2A4

Why does the AGS getting a shell that increases its pen by a few mm warrant it going up to 11.0???

In what world do you come to the conclusion that moving up the already mediocre french 7.3/7.7 tanks by 0.3 is a good idea

The AGS is criminally undertiered its been handheld since its release moving it up is a good thing

Regarding the G, I wouldn’t be shocked if no ARH missiles was the reason it’s staying at 12.3.
Perhaps that’s also the reason the F-15A might be sticking at 12.3 as well, but who knows.

but to 11.0 with a shell that doesn’t even pen 400?

10m2 should 11.7 at AB 10.3 AT RB you know why it too powerful ,1s heat 1.69KG TNT 20G

If that was the reason then the su27 wouldn’t move up as it can’t have ARH

Ground
France ground:
Moving the AMX-50 up makes no sense what so ever, its firepower is so mid already.
Somua SM maybe, but it wont be much of a “heavy” tank at 8.0 and it ruins frances 7.7 lineup for no reason if you have it.

Russia ground:
Strela needs to go to 10.0 atleast, that thing is dominating planes at 10.3 no issue, no to mention 9.7.

USA ground:
AGS going up is fine IMO (although my 10.3 lineup will be sad). But only giving it M833 is beyond me, it doesnt stand a chance in a slight uptier with that round, M900 would make perfect sense or drop it to 10.7 BR.

Air
Saggittario going up makes no sense, its worse then an Ariete.
Mirage 2000C-S5 going up when the C-S4 stays at 11.7 makes no sense, they are about as on par as you can get.
J8F going up to 12.0 makes no sense to me, sure the pythons are good, but they are still IR with no IRCCM, so they are flared easily, and the J8F is not exactly a great airframe. You are basically saying a J8F is on par with a F16A now, good luck with that fight J8.
All F16 and Mig29 variants has no buisness being 12.0 if everything else moves up, they should move up to 12.3.
F15’s not going up makes no sense, it belongs in 12.7 like the rest, Its speed is nuts.

Okay lets talk about these changes.

First off. Both the AMX-10P and the other 5.3 spaa moving up makes absolutely zero sense. The 10P is a light tank that cant pen half the stuff at 5.3 let alone 5.7 so why is it moving up? Its not game breaking at the current br.

AML-90 to 7.7. Why? Its not on the same level as the AMX-13-90 which does almost everything better than the AML.

And time for the big one, Char 25t to 8.0. Gaijin in what universe does a light tank thats the size of a medium with 200mm of pen belong at the same br as the Leo 1 and AMX-30? These are 1950’s era tanks go to the same br as 1970’s MBT’s man. The char was perfectly okay at 7.3, fine at 7.7 with the reload buff, but 8.0? Youre trying to kill this tank and theres no other explanation other than that. You already killed France 7.3 as a lineup, why are you trying to make these 7.7’s unusable?

Thats the downside you get for being functionally unkillable when hull down

T-28 (1938) 1.3 1.7 not a good idea, there is a big difference between main gun KT28 L10.
Pbil m/40 1.7 2.0 1.7 2.0 Nice to see this cancer change to BR2.0
Somua SM 7.7 8.0 7.7 8.0 7.3to7.7then8.0???
Pz.Sp.Wg.P204(f) KwK 1.7 2.0 1.7 2.0
USSR BT5 BT7 are significantly stronger than this poor tank.

Blagorodnyy 5.0 5.3 5.0 5.3
Neustrashimy 5.0 5.3 5.0 5.3
Spokoinyy 5.0 5.3 5.0 5.3

As they go to 5.3, why Moffett still at 5.0?

IJN Yubari 4.3 4.7 4.3 4.7
IJN Yubari is significantly weaker than other BR4.7 cruiser.

IJN Kurama 6.0 5.7 6.0 5.7
Kurama is significantly stronger than Ikoma, why they are same BR?
