Planned Battle Rating Changes (January 2026)

Official News, Development Blogs and Updates
2040

Vehicle: Hq-11

Gamemode: Ground Realistic

BR Change: 12.7 → 12.3

Reason: Currently the hq-11 is in the same boat as the spyder, which is being limited to 8 missiles ready and only being a single system while being very large.

this ends up putting it at a great disadvantage compared to the other 12.7 sam systems and one that builds onto the original issues.

there are two separate solutions to this, either bring it down in br to 12.3 or keep it 12.7 and give it a secondary launcher (maybe even the ciws gun it should have) as this would help both survivability and effectiveness.

If you are changing 2S38 BR from 10.3 to 10.7, I think you all also should consider to change Strf90 vehicles from 10.3 to 10.7 or higher.

2042

Shouldn’t the Japanese A-7e also be move with its American tree counterpart?
also move the Sea Hawk mk.50 and mk.100 back down to 9.0, that’s the only thing that made them worth using.

No reason for T-62 to be at 8.7 while Turm III is at 8.3.

Moving every single aircraft from line 2 to line 1 for 3 aircraft seems like a lot of effort for not a lot of gain.

Even just Rank VII onwards, its a bit… wierd

2045

Vehicle : Turm III
Gamemode : Ground RB
BR change : 8.3 → 8.7
This German tank is very strong for its br. It has 5.0s reload on 105mm gun, has 30mm secoundary canon. Downtiers to 7.3 are playground for this machine, yes it has no armor, but if used right, it will wipe out entire enemy team. IMO it could be 9.0, but lets put it on 8.7 for now and see what happens.

Vehicle : Premium T-80UD
Gamemode : Ground RB
BR change : 10.3 → 10.7
Because of recent reload change (from 6.5 to 6.0s) this tank is OP. Has a lot of armor and is very mobile forward.

Vehicle : BMPT and BMPT-72
Gamemode : Ground RB
BR change : 11.3 → 11.7 or even 12.0
Do I really have to explain this?

Vehicle : Object 906
Gamemode : Ground RB
BR change : 8.0 → 8.3 or even 8.7
How is this fully stabilized tank with 4.3s reload is on 8.0 where some of tanks have no stabilizer on this BR, especially if it gets downtiered to 7.0?

Vehicle : Object 685
Gamemode : Ground RB
BR change : 8.7 → 9.0
This tank is better than Ikv 91-105 (which is 9.0), because it has 6.0s reload while Swedish tank has 6.7s best with ACE crew. Ikv has 105mm while Object has 100mm, but it is not that big of a difference, because that 0.7s faster reload makes HUGE difference.

Vehicle : T-64A (1971)
Gamemode : Ground RB
BR change : 9.3 → 9.7
6s reload which it got recently buffed this tank a lot, like its better brother T-64B, which now goes on 10.3. This tank is way better than T-72A, so they shouldn’t be on same BR.

Those are tanks i can think of right now, there are for sure more things to change, some of them were mentioned by others, some of them were mentioned in past br changes, but nothing changed since then.

Lol, the cope around the F-15A (one of the most overrated planes in the entire game since I started playing) is baffling.

It shows how many of you haven't even played it and tried to hold a lock on a slightly maneuvering target, the radar lit falls apart.


Credits of the video goes to @Axzuel

Anyway, remove its AIM-9Ms and (maybe?) keep it at 12.7? It still will be glorified anyway.

The F-15J is another entire discussion as it has AAM-3s, that menace shouldn’t be at 12.7 unless they remove both AIM-9Ms and AAM-3s.

2047

I do not think the chieftain mk10 or chieftain 900 deserve to be moved up to 9.3, they are the only counter to the object 279 at its own BR with the strong turrets and decent dart.

2048

Even if so, it is absolute shit at intercepting

2049

isn’t that just common Sparrow behavior, even that kind of thing happen on Hornet and Tigershark

2050

You realize that manouvering all over the place and spinning like a top like on that video is what causes the lock to be lost?

The radar needs time to move and stabilize… you will drop a lock on almost every plane that doesn’t have a ESA radar if you move like that.

do you use the datalink feature or simply fnf them?

2052

That is false, as long as you keep your lock within the radar’s cone and your target doesn’t notch, it shouldn’t lose lock on PD.

I’ve got several SARH kills while maneuvering with the F/A-18A.

2053

Moving F-15’s to 12.7 only creates more toxic compression:

  1. F-15A/F-15AJ at 12.7 have better kit than F-16AJ at 12.7.
  2. F-16AJ if moved to 12.3 has better kit than F-16A at 12.3.
  3. F-16A, F-16AJ and F-15A/F-15AJ create immense pressure on 11.7-12.0.

Don’t move F-15’s to 12.7, instead move 13.3-13.7 planes with ARH +0.3.

me163B/B-0
needs either a drop in br
or
be given its 55k ft climb rate

2055

I just see a need for a bug report not a BR drop

2056

Tiger E: GRB 6.0 > 5.7

Tiger H1 GRB 5.7 >5.3

Panther A, G, F GRB 6.0 > 5.7

KW I C 756 (r) GRB 5.0 > 4.7

Leopard 1 GRB 8.0 > 7.7

Sd.Kfz 234/2 move to rank III

StuG III G move rank III

Sd.Kfz.251/21 move to rank III

Pz.IV H / J move rank III

2057

they could leave tiger E where it is if it had the add on armor

2058

What

The radar illuminating a target has nothing to do with the radar tracking a target

Just because you can do this on one plane doesn’t mean every radar set will act that way

Try to lock a target while turning or banked a bit on the su-27/mig-29. Or holding a target while inverted… Good luck.

TLDR stop being a beyblade and the 15 locks just fine

T-62 is still a strong tank and it shouldn’t go lower because Turm III is 8.3 and is better than it. Turm should go 8.7 or 9.0, not other way around. Those tanks fulfill a different purpose, T-62 is armored, so it can survive some hits if player makes mistake, Turm on the other hand is basicly a light tank, not good armor, but great gun, secondary canon and fast reload, plus mobility lets you play very aggressive with it, while T-62 is more of a defensive tank.
