Planned Battle Rating Changes for October 2024

TL;DR

He agreed with the A-10C going to 12.0
Su-25SM3 going to 12.0
The Su-39 staying exactly as it is, my god you are dense.

IJN Amagi 7.0 → 7.3 Fast reload rate and alot of 410 guns compare to others.
Challenger 3 TD 11.7 → 12.0 Reload rate 6.0 sec. → 5.0 sec. Unpopular tree compare to others. It bring alot of ability to play on this vehicle.

Air RB, F104S should be 11.0 (11.3>11.0)
Reasoning :This plane is inferior in flight performance to the mig 21bis and also has inferior weapons, it only has aim9p and needs to give up the cannon to carry radar missiles

Ground Realistic, CAS. 12.7<13.0

Will there be an increase in Top Tier CAS i know many are 12.7 to go along with the current 11.7 top tier ground. Is there any chance we can see a blanket increase to 13.0 for the top tier CAS to keep them out of the main premium bracket which will be 11.7.

I think if premium/new players are constantly getting battered by CAS it will give them a bad impression of game becasue they haven’t had the chance to grind air trees. This may also lead to an imbalance among teams

Simulator air battles, A-10C, 11.3 → 12.0

Reason: the Aim-9M is very very unbalanced aam in simulator as there is no way to tell if one has been fired.
Additionally reasons:
Pros:

  • Pingless IFF HMD (great for sneak attacks)
  • 4 Aim-9ms (way more than other even 11.7, 12.0, or 12.3 planes)
  • MAW (which is very OP for people not even paying attention, and will make 90% of aams miss entirely)
  • 480 countermeasures (enough to literally defeat 12+ aams)
  • great cockpit visibility
  • high amount of 30mm cannon ammo
  • dozens of good agm, bomb, and other munitions.
  • Thermal pod

Cons:
Slow

Many people agree to it going up in Br.

Vehicle in question: Challenger 2 family
Vehicle changes: rate of fire increased to 15r/s on the ready rack(5.2 stock, 4 aced), with a flat out 12r/s afterwards(6.5 stock, 5 aced)
With most 120 NATO equipped tanks bar leopard variants receiving 5 seconds reload, the challenger 2 has effectively lost its only advantage. The CR2 is at least out-gunned, out-loaded, out-armored or out-sped in three of the criteria compared to machines above.

Here are some of the regularly critiqued top tiers comparing to it:
Ariete AMV: worse armor - better mobility, penetration, same reload with a FOAR of 15+1 rounds
Top tier Chinese MBT: worse reload, similar penetration - better UFP and turret armor, immensively better mobility
Merkava Mk.4B/LIC/M: similar mobility, worse armor - better penetration, same reload
Leclerc SXXI/AZUR: similar penetration - better mobility, same reload with an autoloader and a FOAR of 22+1 rounds

Id also suggest they fix the size of the ready rack as they nerfed it to 4 for balancing reasons

Increasing it to 8 would barely change anything, increasing it to 12 may.

Fairly certain its suppose to be like 20 or something, same as the CR1s

Air RB, Kfir canards should be 11.0 (11.3.>11.0)
Reasoning: This plane is inferior in flight performance to the mig 21bis and also has inferior weapons, it only has 2x aim9G or shafir 2

@Stona_WT please, I’m aware you’ve been asked before, but can you please clarify what the new outputs are for the RARDEN, and confirm that they will be mirrored to the Warrior?

The CR1s also only had like 5? The chieftains do have a whopping 24+1.

F-14s going up is really good, but according to Modern ARH (FOX 3) Missile - History, Performance & Discussion the AIM-54 should have a Max G Pull of Up to 25Gs, this mean that the AIM-54 needs a buff of AOA and G pull, also the Fakour-90 is overperforming by a Lot since it should have way less range than the AIM-54, while AIM-54 should have way more range, AIM-54 should loft more than it does right now, up to 100.000ft, beyond the maps límit… and a loft angle of 30°.

-Less drag.
-a bit more power.
Top speed of Mach 5.

Max kill range of 160km, since ita actually accurate.
While You can’t get higher kills than 65km, do You have the same efective range of the R-27ER.

Air Simulator, Su-25SM3, 12.3 → 12.0

Reason: it’s most similar to the A-10C in pretty much every way, thus they should be the same Br.

-additionally add 2x R60Ms on the outer most hard points, as they are empty and all the Su-25SM3 gets to defend itself is 2x R-73s, which is a bit lacking and rather odd.
Or, to make it completely balanced, give the Su-25SM3 4x R73s to match the A-10C

That way there is balance and they are pretty much 1:1
The A-10C will have more Cms, while the SU-25Sm3 will have less Cms, and less cockpit visibility for the trade off of speed.

I agree. While I disagree with the flight performance bit, but it is undeniable that the kfir canard(and C.2/C.7) are overtiered. I believe it is the lack of adequate countermeasures combined with the poor avionics that limits their potential.

Yeah but its meant to shoot down soviet bombers, giving them such a range wouldnt change much. Are you trying to down the SOLG again?

Yeah 💀

Good. If the falcon isn’t a pure tank destroyer it should go to 7.7,
But the fox still needs to become 8.0
