Breda 501 is fine at 4.7 stop increasing its BR to absurd levels especially since you don’t give it its full crew? After all, this tank should have 8 crew members and not 5.

Its weaknesses are:

  • Low speed in reverse.
  • Low turret translation.
  • Vulnerable to machine guns
  • Completely vulnerable to aircraft: as soon as you destroy a tank, the enemy takes the aircraft and then immediately destroys you.
  • HE bullets destroy you in one shot

Conclusion: Breda 501 should not be moved by BR. Leave it at BR 4.7

And now let’s talk about the Italian Ariete… All the Ariete have still been increased in BR what an absurd joke… Gaijin have you made up your mind to give him missing real armour, or do you still claim that Aries weighs 60 tons of air?

Python 3 is not that good man. Its literally just a slightly improved Aim-9L. It uses the exact same seeker as the Aim-9L and has a extremely similar turning circle to the Aim-9L, as the acceleration negates the G-Pull in terms of being able to hit more shots the Aim-9L can’t.
It’s just a glorified Aim-9L, that also had more drag and weight added to the aircraft when carried. And it’s still a Phantom that’s its mounted on, and a phantom that lack HMD or Radar missiles at that…

Air RB, Tornado IDS WTD61. 11.3 > 11.0-10.7. At its BR of 11.3 it is repeatedly beaten to bases by the faster F-111’s. I don’t think it would be unbalanced at these BR’s as we already see vehicles having AIM-9L’s as early as 10.3 in the A-10A Early. I think that at one of these two BR’s it would stand a much better chance at making it to a base and successfully bombing the target.

It likely stands for based reload. There isn’t a top tier MBT ingame that has a manual reload rate below 5 seconds.

1456

They had their fun in constant downtiers and slapping defenceless planes. It should go up and actually make players play it vs something that can fight back, instead of just brainded BVR spam -.-

1457

It’s fine where it at honestly. It will no longer face Aim-54s now as well, so it’s in and benefit better spot. It’s quite the fun aircraft where it is now, and it’ll be even better after!

Air RB F-16A MLU 13.0→13.0
Give the historical AIM-9M and 120 rounds of countermeasures and keep it at 13.0

With F14s going up, just give the Iranian the r73 and put it at 13.0 and the f14a its aim9L at 13.0 aswell

1460

Ignoring Sim again? We need some pretty significant BR changes.

Agree, the Piranha is suppose to be better close range thanks to the extra G pull but it actually worse cuz it’s very fast of the rail and fly straight for like 1 sec before it even start to turn :/

1462

i belive you should decrese the hunter f.58 br from 9.7 to 9.3, as it is massivley outclassed by the planes at its br

1463

ofcourse. must have been my imagination…

1464

Well for the most part this is good news, 9.3 br will become playable again. Perhaps even moving the top tier echelon of every nations to 12.3 might give the 11.3s more breathing room.

1465

my opinion
1：Air RB， F-104A,F104C : 9.3>9.7
now many aircraft they carring high-performance missile have been pull to a higher BR, so those early F104 should go, because many subsonic aircraft like G.91R1 without AAM missile things can hardly against with them.

2：Air RB，MiG17PF, LiM-5P 8.7>9.0
they have a afterburner engine with more thrust, so they should not keep the same br to basic type MiG17

3: RB， VT-4A1 12.0>11.7
this MBT except a unique APS，whatever firepower，protection，maneuverability can’t go well on the TOP BR, if compare with some BR11.3 vehicle(live version 2.39.0.55) some like M1A1 AIM is better to him.

4: Air RB JH-7A 12.3>11.7
this attacker have 4 all aspect AAM but both PL-5C or PL-8 have no ECCM, also have not fox1 AAM, it can hardly do contribution in BR12.3。

5:Air RB Tornado IDS(all) 11.7>11.3
All the Tornado IDS with GBUs (Tronado Assta1, Tronado GR.1, Tronado 1995) should lower BR ,beacuse GBUs can’t kill enemy players in air RB, they have no different with Tronado MFG or Tronado WTD61 which are BR11.3 currently.

6:Air RB Su17/Su22 family 11.3>11.0
The MiG21Bis are planning to lower BR11.0, the Su17/22 should together, they have same 6 R60M,but worse flight performance， they have no reason not to go BR11.0.

Others suggestion
Me262A1a U1: Tag: attacker→ Interceptor
it has a powerful firepower but don’t stand with attacker, just like Ta152C3, Yak9k. it have no bomb things. so it should be the Interceptor

XM1G: add M774
now the of40 MTCA with DM33 ready to 9.3, the similar mobility with a more better firepower, so XM1G should add M774

If anything it should go higher, but it’s fine where it is at.

1467

mig 29 in 12.7 with r60mk is sad

1468

Tenatively, its the only Hunter that actually has the performance to justify the 9.7 rating as its the only Hunter with CMs currently. The other 9.7 Hunter, the Hunter F6, is universally inferior to the Hunter F58

Saab J35XS 11.0 > 10.7

Even though it has already been reduced to 11.0, it necessarily needs to go back to 10.7. I want my boy back where he was, and there’s nothing special about him to stay at 11.3, 11.0, or above that.

Hello @Stona , Just a quick question about the spreadsheet.

Concerning the Ayit, it currently says on the spreadsheet that it will be moved from arcade 9.7 to 10.0, im a bit confused with this because as it stands the Ayit is currently at 9.3 in Arcade and RB, is it possible that the table was meant to say the Ayit is going from 9.3 to 9.7? and If so why?

It already is one of the weakest jets in a full uptier due to its energy retention, subsonic speeds and extremely basic RWR with no radar system.

9.3 for the Ayit is truly the best spot for this vehicle, as its strength are more of a CAS for ground RB. The Israeli tree already suffers, this change will practically make Israel unplayable as its the only decent option after 7.7 and before 11.3, please reconsider this change if it was not a mistake.

I hope they added more lower BR changes, rank 3, 4 and 5 need a lot of chages too.
