Seriously F-18E at BR 14.7?! This makes no sense at all Right now it should be at least BR 14.3 or even 14.0 At the current state the F/A-18E is extremely hard to play It cannot compete with aircraft like the Typhoon Su-30SM2 or F-15C in BVR It is simply too slow and outclassed Being forced to fight against top-tier jets with better speed and radar puts the F-18E at a huge disadvantage This is not balanced gameplay If Gaijin insists on keeping the F-18E at BR 14.7 then it absolutely needs AIM-120C-7 to be even remotely competitive That would greatly improve balance I understand that the F-18E may receive better weapons in the future but balancing a vehicle based on “future potential” instead of current performance is unfair to players.

Some of your suggestions are good but F5 by one BR is just moronic… the plane is just as good as the pilot other then that it does not have much going for it except the speed retention in turns… they are fine where they are. Putting them up will make them useless as they are barely supersonic, carry pretty meh loadout of missiles and most lack any decent radar.

did you ever play a single match in SIM?
the HMS isnt helping you a single bit if your avionics are bad

you notch and sneeze one chaff and ER is defeated. It’s not that big of a deal when the sensors on the Flanker are so terrible. You can even crank through the 27’s radar without ever going defensive and it will drop lock.
F/A-18E
14.7 → 14.3
The super hornet can NOT compete with other top tier aircraft at all
- barely supersonic, even with full burners at high altitude
- extremely mediocre missiles, with 9Ms and 120Bs being pretty basic in performance
- below average AESA radar, atleast compared to the SM2 and Eurofighters which are capable of over 180* prefect search and tracking
The super hornet is already a contender for the worst jet in top tier, its only an update old, dont take it behind the barn already

Agreed. Since the Sagittario 2 went up to 9.3, 80% of aircraft it can face have gone down. It has ridiculously less acceleration than the Ariete and does not deserve 9.3.

Yak-3U
5.7 → 6.3
One of the strongest fighters in the game for its BR, especially at lower altitudes. The thing is, most fights in the game, is being taken place at the lower altitudes, where it have the advantage. This is multiplied massively in GRB, since everything is concentrated on the small area at the ground, making it really effectively in GRB even though it have armaments against ground… The Yak-3U is the worst offender of the Yak-3’s, being near UFO like flight performance, easily outperforming other planes that are located at a lot higher BR.

with their IOG and high speed, that isnt true

Tier 9??? noooo please, more tiers does nothing but make grinding annoying
With less countermeasures and worse flight performance and worse sensors. It’s balanced.
removing the belt with a single apds shell from the falcon without moving it down in br is crazy but i can understand as it could really only fire HE, HEI-T, APHEI AND APIC-T ,
but only reason it is at the curren br is due to that belt removing it will make it suffer so it would be best to move it down to 8.0 or even 7.7
on the other note i still think the BMPT & BMPT-72 need to move up to 12.0 or maby even to higher br can under stand why they wont as no prem is higher than 12.0 for ground
as for why the br it is at it can go head to head with mbt and win 9/10 times just by spamming the auto cannon and then missiling them if the auto cannons dont kill them first iv even seen them at top tier and them to make the match one sided

you can one relock instantly and IOG hard carrys it and you also have to move the SU33 and SU27 are without a doubt the strongest 13.0s 8 R27ERs vs 4 AIM-7ms
which have worse pull worse IOG worse acceleration too
nothing at 13.0 that doesnt have FOX-3 aim 120s can beat you in BVR

Vehicle: T26E5
Gamemode: Ground Arcade
BR Change: 7.0 ----> 6.7 (leave at 6.7)
Reason: The T26E5 does not stand out in any particular way.
It has average speed and a rather weak gun, winning only thanks to its armor—but it has vulnerable spots that allow the E5 to be destroyed with a single shot.
At BR 7.0, it will play much more often against the IS-3 (7.3), IS-4M (7.7), and others that completely dominate it, because its 90mm gun is incapable of doing anything.
Perhaps it can; we should hope that they add better armaments that the SuperHornet can carry (aim-9x, AMRAAM C-7, etc.)
its flight model overperforms more than any other and while on full afterburn its as hot as a prop plane.
blatant OP vehicle shouldnt be so low
