Planned Battle Rating Changes (January 2026)

Scrolled way too far to find this

True

never give it 7P

or maybe t55 go 8.7
This is what gaijin possibly do

F14B should get it

AIM-120C-7 is currently modelled the exact same as AIM-120C-5
literally no meaningful upgrade
exact same situation as AIM-120A/B

Vehicle:
Saab J35XS
10.3 → 10.7
Add RB27 (copy paste of AIM 26) as compensation

AIR REALISTIC

A6M5 Otsu 5.3 → 5.0

Replacement of one 7.7mm MG with one 13.2mm MG is a firepower change too small to be worth an entire BR step.

HMS Peacock
Naval Arcade / Realistic
Br - 4.3 → 4.0
This ship being the same br as SKR-7 and PR-206 is nonsense. It has a single 76mm gun that runs out of ammo so quickly.

AIM-7s are totally comparable to ERs

Outperforms F-5E across the board except for radar and RWR.

AIM-120C5 = AIM-120C6 = AIM-120C7

The AIM-120D was in the files last dev server and all it had over the AIM-120C5 was a 30 second longer battery life and launch gimbal limit removal. It’s lost I’m afraid.

Only the Aim-7P found on the F-18 premiums.

If the comparison is with the F-15A, then they do not

Ground Realistic

Yak-3 & Yak-3 (France)

4.3 → 4.7/5.0

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 doesn’t have good armaments against ground.

Yeah, it can AFTER they do that. Gaijin needs to stop this stupid idea of “were going to add this feature to PREPARE for a future update when everyone will have it so its balanced, but its only gonna be balanced later on”
Ex. Trunnions, Abram’s turret basket, thrust vectoring aircraft, rafale being the only AESA on release and clobbering top tier

Mode: GRB
Vehicle: Chinese F-5A
BR: 10.7 → 10.3

Reason: The F5C and other F5As sit at 10.3 in GRB, they all have the same 4 bullpups, no reason the Chinese one needs to be higher.

Edit: The Norwegian one gets Aim9Ls and a AGM so that it fine at 10.7
