Reason: The Hunter F6 has very limited GRB potential, with a minimal A2G weapons load, especially alongside missiles and no CMs. Compared directly to the Hunter FGA9 already at 9.3, let alone other 9.3s such as the Buc S2 with both CMs and CCIP, it is notably underpowered in this role.
The main strength for it, is the AAMs that would give a much needed CAP option for our 9.3 line-up which is about to become our primary BR of this bracket.
Vehicle: BI rocket plane USSR Game Mode: Air RB / Air Realistic BR change: 6.7 to 7.3 Reasoning:
The rocket plane is outperforming every opponent at its current BR. Even as the fuel load looks rather small the fuel efficiency is highly unrealistic - with low throttle the fuel lasts for ages.
In addition the 2 x 45 rounds of 20 mm ShVak are enough for any non-rookie player to score 3-5 kills with one ammo load - thanks to the damage output buff for the weakest 20 mm cannon in irl (WW 2) with RS 2.0 / 3.0.
In order to kill a BI there are just 2 viable strategies:
Swarm it aggressively with multiple planes at the same time in order to enforce them to use 100% power to evade the attacks - this has to be repeated until the BI runs out of fuel and can’t escape as their rip speed is too low.
Wait in orbit until the BI scored 2-3 kills and is heading to rearm refuel to his forward airfield and strafe it on the runway.
This is no subjective observation - these threads deal with the current op status of the BI - highly experienced Air RB players confirm this in detailed analysis spread amongst more than 200 posts (with together more than 10k views):
Why is the Tornado F3/ADV being moved down a rank? I put an talisman on it is because it being at Rank 8. I get vehicle got their BR moved around and rank adjusted as the tech tree change but why is this being down graded? This feels like a scame. Do you refund the talisman??
F-20A
ARB 12.3-12.0
6 9L, or 2 9L/2 7F looks ridiculous, especially when you get to 13.3, an airplane with missiles without noise protection and two sparrows meets such as mk2/ mkk.
Or add double pylons under 7f (balance value)
So what is the logic of Prince of Wales being put to 8.0 when it’s practically nothing going for it at 7.7 except maybe survivability?
Scharnhorst has astronomically better survivability, is 7.3 and at least has oppressive fire rate.
American dreads have 35.6s with better armor penetration at 7.0
The Prince of Wales’ secondaries don’t even fire where you aim.
Edit
It is straight up insane that you would bump this ship, with some of the single worst shells of her tier, to 8.0 instead of dropping her to 7.3 where she can actually shine to some degree
Edit 2
American dreads also have triple the secondaries, have a far faster firerate and just do more than PoW at lower battle ratings. The logic is astounding to me.
I’m aware, but in practice, almost nobody will use it as such in WT due to how rewarding it is to play it as LT/TD. I was more suggesting the vehicle should just generally be changed to the regular spawn point pool as a whole.
Yeah lets move the tanks with laughably bad gun handling, underperforming shell, zero survivability and armor and unusable cqb sights even higher, great idea. You are literally insane if you think it should have the same BR as tanks like the M1A2
okay let me get this straight, instead of buffing this thing or doing literally anything to make it more competitive you’re going to move it down to 11.3? There isn’t a single British ground vehicle from 11.0-11.3 so what exactly is even the point of moving this thing down??? Who is this change for???
Vehicle: Yak-3 (e) Event plane Game Mode: Air RB / Air Realistic BR change: 4.0 to 4.3 Reasoning:
The plane in itself provides the same flight characteristics like the TT Yak-3 and the French premium Yak-3. The sole difference is one less HMG.
So whilst the burstmass is reduced, the actual impact is is minimal as long as the 2 HMGs of the Yak-3s cannot be activated separately (they always fire simultaneously) the trigger time is the same. So for a highly agile aircraft able to outmaneuver almost every opponent the decisive factor is always the ability to bring guns on target - and not how many of them.
In addition the Yak-3 early has twice the KpD (Kills per death) ratio than the 109 F-4 or the Spit VB at the same BR. Even the A6M3 at 4.0 is with 1,43 far away from the 2,09 of the Yak-3 (e) - this should be evidence enough that the 4.0 BR is too low.
And, ofc, the Yak-3 (e) has by far the highest KpD ratio of all Yak-3 variants…
Su 30 (premium version) 13.7 or 14.0
The su 30 should not be allowed to fight against 12.3- 13.0 jets considering that most of them only have around 6 to 8 missiles that usually are ir and sarh (10 missiles in somecases like the f18 a d the su27/j11)
Reason: Compared to the M19A1 and M42 the Phòng không is more of a side grade rather than an upgrade deserving of a whole BR jump. The tank offers slightly more armour, fire rate and targeting speeds for worse mobility, survivability, shell weight, velocity, gun handling and anti tank capability when it is needed.
