Planned Battle Rating Changes (January 2026)

Challenger and Challenger 2 (All)

(Modification Changes)
The Challengers in game role is better for playing as “Sniper” and this tanks should get the Laser Range Finder at rank 2, with the speed and weight of this vehicle it is so hard to get to the cap in time and get any actions to earn points. Comparing to the other Soviet MBTs it’s nonsense to give them Laser Range Finder at rank 2 instead of Challengers and you can see in comparison how the stock Soviet MBT and Challenger can do when stock.

This MUST BE CHANGE!!

yes i hate the french too

IIRC a test pilots notes said “the rudder gets stiff at high speed” and gaijin took this as “the rudder stops working over 400mph” of course, this is extreme

if the rudder was functional that plane would easily be 9.3. hunter speeds with 4 sidewinder B missiles.

It would also be nice to have a usable platform to have 4 bullpups on for GRB. I use the sea vixen and bullpups make me cackle like a demon they are so fun to smack people with now that ive gotten quite good with them. having two more would be really something

Idk I love mid tier than top tier especially Leclerc I can shout at it all day compare to non-stab french tanks that most of the people hate.

¯_(ツ)_/¯

not even surprised this is the case

this is the company that said the t72 cupola doesnt physically exist

same company that took “ERA can protect up to 30mm AP rounds” as “30mm RHA equivalent”

or “alluminum basket bolted to the turret” as “a comically large horizontal drive”

or- actually were gonna be here a while if we keep going

This explains why i cant fv4005 the spawncamping gits

funny how they modelled every other t-tank cupola but refused the t72 for no reason

Currently, vehicles equipped with the HS.831 (such as the AMX-30 DCA and Falcon) usually fall within a Battle Rating (BR) of 8.0 - 8.3. In this range, they often encounter T-54/55, T-62, and even early T-72 series tanks.

If only API-T (penetration around 60mm) is retained, these anti-air vehicles would be helpless against the sides of tanks.

APDS (penetration around 100mm) allows these lightly armored vehicles to defend themselves by precisely striking the sides of enemy tanks, their tracks, or gun barrels. This is a necessary means for anti-air vehicles to survive in the War Thunder environment (mixed battles). Therefore, APDS should be retained.

meanwhile this turret face is 41mm

did you report it?

yes its reported and accepted.

Every single scimitar bug report (other than one which i helped with) since dev server ended has been me.

Its taken a year and 2 months of reports but its almost accurate now. I accidentally became the CVRT bug reporter after taking personal offence to the state of scimitar on release

Gamemode: Naval arcade

Vehicle/s: Kleber
BR Change: 4.0 → 4.0 (not 4.3)
Reason: differs from the Z15 Erich Steinbrinck exclusively in its worsened air defense, Z15 Erich Steinbrinck is 4.0.

Didnt stop them with F-4EJ and Lazur in the slightest though. And with the recent BR changes 13.7 is a fair game for premiums whether you like it or not (remember WHAT and at what BR they added for RU and CN right after moving top br to 14.3?).
Also means that prem. F-15C clone can come any day now if they feel like it.

So at this point might as well.

Chinese F104G
Game mode: ARB
BR:10.7->10.0
Reason: no countermeasures at all, 4xAIM9J. Should be compared with F-1 and Su-17M2 at 10.0 tbh. I have no idea why a flareless pencil is still 10.7 worthy.

What stinks about this change is the people who just bought premiums. I just purchased the j35xs to grind the gripen e. Now, since your adding tier 9 i cannot do that.

1 year ago i got the merkava 2d and you also pulled this same thing. Ive spent over probably over 600 over the last 5 years. Now, my wallet is closed.
