Planned Battle Rating Changes (January 2026)

Pray tell, which Typhoon?

Please read the following.

You may disagree with me because of my astonishingly high K/D in the plane (joke) but this doesn’t actually subtract in any way from my claim the plane is too bad to be 14.3

I’ll level with you and say that if other planes were balanced this way, the game would be good.

1 step for AESA and 1 step for more ARH. Actually sane to balance like that, just ruins the plane when it’s the only one besides the hornets, treated this way.

You have the right to say that, but we cannot make direct comparisons in this discussion. It’s stupid and pointless because all aeroplanes end up being different.

It is not competitive against Su-30SM2s or Rafales, but it is against mechanical Eurofighters which are blind.

You’re saying it like 70 degree gimbal is bad, it’s not, in fact most radars are of that gimbal in toptier. Rafale, mechanical EFT, Super Hornet, F-15C GE.

BVR isn’t actually too relevant in toptier, otherwise Rafale would be suffering but I would not claim that.

we just need a decompression of the br range

IS6 should not get dropped tho its the best of the IS series of tanks and is straight OP

T54 is literally a way better tiger 2H why would it be anywhere near any 6.7s thats just straight op T26E5 cant even pen it anywhere frontally

and the KV1E shouldnt go any lower literally nothing can pent it a 3.3

5.7s just need to get moved up like they did with tiger 1s

It has a large sample size of players and it’s doing better than average.
It should go up, and its stats support it.

That’s why we can’t make comparisons, and gaijin has much more dynamic and accurate statistics than we have access to. They have a better view of what’s really happening.

AESA radar vs mechanical is a huge upgrade

you’re getting kills only through BVR?
last I checked BVR performance was mostly irrelevant for planes

We need more than a 1-step increase anyways
We need 15.0 at least
however, I do not really believe this should warrant a br decrease for J-10C
but as we all know gaijin won’t do that

That’s too long to do per vehicle. I’ve been culminating that list for a very long time.

Thought through it quite well as well

That is what should be a point of debate, greater decompression, which I agree should be the case, so that within the same world (EASA), for example, it would be possible to create more practical barriers. (Because I agree that within the AESA world, not all fighters have the same characteristics and some are worse, but in the current situation, it is the best solution for everyone)

half of these peoples list are just straight bias

It most likely will not be considered then unfortunately

Just letting you know

most of that list was pretty crazy yes lets have M26 at 6.7 face a 7.7 T54 with Sabot and it cant pen it anywhere at all frontally

no body calling out any of these takes is wild

  1. IS-4 is better than the IS-6
  2. T-54 isn’t a better tiger II if anything it’s a better panther, it’s not a great tank unless you only see full downtiers.
  3. KV-1E can be killed by a good amount of 3.3s I don’t see why 5.7s fighting 6.7s having to be skillful, tracking, barreling, etc. meanwhile the KV-1E just has to get looked at. This thing is constantly in 5.0 / 5.3 matches, so moving 5.7s up would still do nothing. It has a hard time penning 5.0s, and can’t do much against most 5.3s because its gun is very lacking. Therefore it should be 4.0 again, unless they want to decompress a lot of 5.0 / 5.3s just to make one tank usable again.

We agree.
I present my magnum opus.

5.3 → 5.0

This thing went up a long time ago, for no really good reason. It’s an overweight Zero at too high of a BR.

straight cope

quite literally worse takes than tiger 1

Everyone I’ve seen with it has ridiculous kdr. Even though part of that is bomber abuse from air spawn it’s still too good

tell me then
why is the AIM-120 one of the worst fox-3s in the game despite having really good BVR performance while missiles with great performance within about 15km or lower are considered better?

Well if they listened to logical players like myself, who has taken many many hours to sort through all this just to make the game fun, it wouldn’t be a problem.
