Planned Battle Rating Changes for October 2024

Ground Realistic Battle, A10C . 12.0 > 11.7.
Reasoning: Although it’s armed with 6 Mavericks and a great targeting pod (LITENING II), it doesn’t perform that well due to how slow the aircraft is. Unlike F16C that can climb and sling Mavericks from high and far away to give the AGM range, A10C cannot do that so the Maverick aren’t very effective unless you are close to the battle field which is well within AA range. Not to mention the AV-8B (NA) got the same ground attack load out and got better flight model and speed while sitting at 11.3

Feels as if you’re seriously missing the mark with the decompression. If EVERYTHING goes up, nothing has really changed if things don’t fill the voids left behind.

Ground realistic, JA-37C 11.0 → 10.0.

Reason: is comparble to the Mig 21bis and Mig23M/Mf that got a br decrease. JA37C had less countermeasures, worse ordanace and worse missiles (only rear-aspect) this warrents a decrease in br.

M1 Abrams→back to 10.3(GRB) or at least give it M833

I like how all that Gaijin did is blanket move everything 10.0+ without a hit a critical thought whatsoever and think about what even is the point of decompression , the entire list is so poorly thoughtout that with the one vehicle per post rule, I would have to spam the entire thread because so much shit on the list do not deserve to get moved up at all.

Vehicle: USS Pensacola
Gamemode: Naval Realistic
BR Change: 5.3 → 5.7
Reason: it has a braodside of 10x 8" shells which puts it far and above most other 5.7 heavy cruisers and has reasonably good armour for that BR as well. There is little that justifies it being lower BR than something like HMS London.

I think 10.0 at least will be fair for them.

Im face palming rn, RCV (p) is a 20mm Type 87 RCV is 25mm with no laser rangefinder. Stabilizer or thermals at 9.0, the (p) has the same gun as the XM800T buthas slower fire rate, worse ammo per belt, same apds, and is a worse vehicle than XM800T

Conveniently ignoring the fact the F-4C doesn’t have countermeasures there aren’t we?

Yea I really hate that my 11.0-11.3 line up are forced to play with SU25SM now because it’s going up to 11.7 and my 11.7 are gona 99% play with 4-6 SU25SM instead of 1

Vehicle in question: fahris(desert warrior)
Vehicle changes: 10.0>9.7

A combination of PMB 090’s low pen, the firerate of base bushmaster makes it the worst western autocannon at this BR. Lack of protection cannot be mediated with mediocre mobility, and lacks the ability to launch with CITV like VCC8030 or bradley.

Doesn’t matter. All planes must have an Achille’s heel. The buccaneer is subsonic and can rip flaps easily above 310MPH therefore losing all control.

T55-AM1 > 9.0 or 9.3 reason ? Has basically the same capability’s as the chieftain mk10, lrf composite armour, dart etc … but has a better roof gun, and better mobility. meanwhile the chieftain is going 9.3

I play Bradley and it’s not that good so I can only imagine your pain

Vehicle: Bf109G-14
Gamemode: Air RB
BR Change: 5.3 ----> 5.0
Reason: It is not competitive at br 5.3. poor maneuverbility, decent climb rate, poor firepower.

The ATGM is a large part of the BMP-1’s firepower.

M163 is far too good to be facing prop CAS and ww2 jets.

Would destroy any chance the jet has to compete by overtiering it. Real solution is decompression. ADVOCATE FOR DECOMPRESSION.

Troll ass post, not sincere

MiG-29s are all fine rn, the issue is in the pilot seat.

manual reload buffs aren’t artificial they’re just balance decisions.

I agree

If MiG-21F-13 goes up every other supersonic no exceptions at 9.3 should as well since the F-13 is on the lower end of performers. That said I am a massive advocate for decompression so I am all for this.

Only to a fool who knows nothing about the game or matchmaker. The F-4C is not an equivalent to a SINGLE aircraft at 10.7. With NO exception they ALL fully outclass it. Fly the plane for 50 battles over the weekend and get back to me.

Air RB, J-7E. 11.0 > 11.3. The J-7E’s flight characteristics are significantly superior to regular MiG-21s of the BR bracket, able to retain its energy much better, it’s a clear menace able to carry battles and completely mop the floor in full downtiers, it doesn’t belong in 11.0 like it currently is
