Reasoning: Basically worse than the M-802 in every single way. Worse survivability, secondaries and overall, just why? Besides sharing the same main armament I feel like it has no real reason fighting the Blag and Moffett swarms.
Have you tried driving the Chieftain Marksman… that alone probably handicaps it at 8.7 at most, and the god-awful radar limits it also. 9.0 is an overkill reaction.
Vehicle: AMX (Italian strike aircraft)
BR Change on Air Realistic: 10.7 to 10.3
BR Change on Ground realistic: 11.0 to 10.3
Explanation: Just like the AMX A-1A, the AMX should have its BR lowered on both game modes. With only 2 AIM-9L, on ARB it is outclassed since every plane carries more and/or better missiles , it is even outclassed by other strike aircrafts like the “A-10A Late” with 4 AIM-9Ls, and the “SU-25T” with 2 R-60Ms and 2 R-73s, not to mention the ammount of countermeasures and the power of the cannons.
On ground RB the situation is even worse, at 11.0 it is often uptiered to 11.3 ans turns out to face AA systems that it has no chance of avoiding like the Tor-M1 and ADATS since it carries no guided missiles like, for example, the A-10A Late at 10.7 with 6 AGM-65Ds and the GAU-8/A.
Both the AMX and the AMX A-1A should be at 10.3, since the MAA-1 Piranha is not a upgrade on the AIM-9L (MAA-1 pulls more Gs but have worse flare resitance and lower range), and both have the same ground attack capabilities (both carry 6 guided bombs or 8 “dumb” bombs).
honestly AIM-54 is no where near as op as it used to be the F15A being 12.7 will make it have infinitely worse time so it should be dropped to 12.3 again where it belongs as AIM-54s are beyond easy to dodge you dont even have to notch well
The puma at 10.3 should go lower to 10.0 and the puma at 11.0 should be at 10.7 or at least increase the amount of missiles it’s two steps higher in br just only with 4 spikes
I’d slightly digress moving it down that much in ground RB because it does have potent APHE, but 7.7 should do it just fine there. As for air, I agree tenfold
