Planned Battle Rating Changes (January 2026)

Vehicle: M18 GMC series
Gamemode: Ground Realistic
BR Change: 6.0 —> 5.7
Reason: There is no 6.0 lineup in the game leaving the hellcats in a really weird spot, there has been a lot of powercreep around this BR range as well, there’s no reason to keep some of the most iconic and fun to use US vehicles in this dead BR these days

Ground RB - AMX-32 : 9.7 > 9.3
This tank should go back at 9.3.

Mode: Naval AB & RB

Vessel: RN Ghibli

Change: 3.7 → 3.3

Reasoning: I question this logic of placement at 3.7 BR. It’s limited to two slow-firing 100mm guns and is weaker and slower than destroyers at the same BR.

Simple. 6-6.5 second reload and/or no A2 shell.

Do you want the F-18E to go to 15.0 or higher?
Or do you want Su-30SM to get R-37Ms?

Cause deeply unfair suggestions like that aren’t helpful.

Mode: Naval AB & RB

Vessel: Albatros F543

Change: 4.0 → 3.7

Reasoning: This is essentially overtiered Ikazuchi, which both shared rapid-firing 76mm guns; however, it lacks AP shells and struggles against destroyers, often spawning in bluewater zones where they are instantly outgunned.

It’s not like that hasn’t been ignored before.

This is just gaijin balancing minor nations completely separately from major ones.

The T-72B3 does NOT need a br buff, its perfect at its br, and the arena version needs to be 0.3 higher br.
And why not folder some russian aircrafts like the Su27s, Su30s, Mig29s, and all the Eurofighter Typhoons, a AESA radar doesn"t mean that it needs to be another 400k rp grind. And maybe put the french F16,s and mirages in folders as well

Mode: Naval AB & RB

Vessel: Freccia P-493

Change: 4.7 → 4.3

Reasoning: Freccia P-493 is currently suffering with its legacy BR back then when it had almost no opponents that matched it except the Pr. 206 and some others. It frequently faces destroyers that it cannot hurt more than coastal vessels found in the 4.7 BR range. It particularly doesn’t have a stronger survivability to justify its current BR against its typical opponents.

I disagree. the only thing saving the f84f from the abyss rn is the airspawn it cannot for the life of it accelerate, and it’s an awful awful fighter, the canberras can out-dogfight it. the only thing it has going for it is the airspawn so it could go for bases since it’s all it can do. if it started off the ground, it’d be worse accelerating than the a5 sabre. it won’t see combat

Vehicles affected: USS Charles Adams & USS Forrest Sherman

Sugeestion: Change their places. Charles Adams can shoot targets further away than Forrest Sherman, while having greater accuracy.

Mode: Naval AB & RB

Vessel: Saetta P-494

Change: 4.7 → 4.3

Reasoning: Saetta P-494 is currently suffering with its legacy BR back then when it had almost no opponents that matched it except the Pr. 206 and some others. It frequently faces destroyers that it cannot hurt more than coastal vessels found in the 4.7 BR range.

Why are the Falcon and the AMX 30 DCA of all vehicles the only ones being touched in the rank 5-6 SPAA range when the Gepard, ZA-35, and XM-246 are just as overpowered/annoying if not worse

Partly for its magic turbocharged engine :(

Coastal 3.7 >3.3

Compared to Syanon at 3.3 shes much worst armed with one less main gun, and the rear mount has severely restricted arcs. Additionally she lacks the extra armour on the upper structure and bleeds crew easier as a result (after already starting with fewer). The 2 torpedos countbfir little, and it’s tortuous trying to grind the mods to take advantage of the extra speed to prevent being a sitting duck at most Bluewater spawns.

Ground RB - AMX-13 (FL11) : 4.3 > 4.0 or 3.7.
This tank is not better than the US M24 or the AMX-13-M24, while it’s BR is way too high. It should be decreased to either 4.0, or even 3.7 like the two other one. The gun is also very wobbly, no point using the speed at your advantage if you are waiting a long time for your gun to stabilize everytime you stop.
