Yeah, I dont know what they’ve changed, but the starstreaks dont seem to do much vs light tanks at the moment
Ground RB:
Char 25 t : 8.0 > 7.7
13.3? no they are 13.0 in air rb
so you get 2km less range and a lot better close range firepower, how is that not about equal
compared to ito vs pantsir 8km less range less missles and no guns
Here are my suggestions for changes to Ground Realistic Battles
M109Gs 6.3 → 6.7 Right now the only difference between these and the M109A1s is a small amount of weight, otherwise these vehicles are effectively identical and should not be at separate BRs.
SIDAM 25 8.3 → 8.0 This vehicle is nowhere near a peer of other 8.3 AAs such as the Gepard, and is much closer to the M163 which sits at 7.3(!) With such small APDS belts and no AP rounds of any kind in the main belts, the SIDAM 25 has very little capability to defend itself against ground vehicles. In addition to that it has no radar, and the distance it can lock onto aircraft is very limited as is the ammo supply. This makes it ineffective against helicopters armed with ATGMs. There are also only 2 other vehicles in the Italian tree at 8.3, and both of them are mediocre ATGM carriers, while there is a much better lineup at 8.0. Moving it down to 8.0 would be a good start and truthfully it could even go to 7.7.
R2Y2 8.0 → 7.3 These jets are rather inept at their current tier especially with MiG-15s and F-86s at 8.0 now. A BR of 7.3 would also make it useful for CAS.
Ground RB:
AMX-50 (TO90/930)
AMX-32 (120) 9.7 → 9.3
It’s incredibly slow with absolutely 0 armor to show against anything that isn’t a 25mm/30mm autocannon.
It’s firepower is also incredibly mediocre for 9.7, heavily lagging behind most 9.3 MBT’s which break the 400mm+ barrier of KE penetration.
This tank was perfectly fine at 9.3 where it 100% belongs.
GRB :
VAB Mephisto : 8.7 → 9.0
Change : Add HOT-3 atgm
9.7 for the T72 would be fine.
I still don’t understand how that thing didn’t move down immediately after the butchering.
Air RB:
Mirage 4000: 13.0 > 12.7
The issue is it’s basically a fairing containing the guidance electronics, at most you’re getting sgt york tank effectiveness, probably worse
Vehicle: F-15A “Baz”
Gamemode: Air Realistic Battles
BR Change: 12.7 (Same as proposed)
Suggested Change: Remove the Aim-9M. If the Aim-9M is kept, keep it at 13.0, no Aim-9M carrying F-15 should be below 13.0.
Reason: Historically Israel didn’t get Aim-9Ms until the 2000s, the F-15A Baz used Python 3s and Aim-9Ls exclusively until the Baz Meshupar program. It’s loadout should reflect this ingame. Israel also lacks any 12.7 aircraft with SARH radar guided missiles, this could solve this.
Ground RB:
EBR 1951: 5.3 → 4.3
how did it get even slower from the T26E1-1 (also there’s no dashes In American tanks as a general rule)
AMX-13 (FL11) 4.3 → 3.3
This thing is worse than the 3.7 M24 in literally EVERY WAY.
This is legit nothing but skill tax clownery.
This tank belongs at 3.3, not 4.3.
Air RB:
- SO 4050 Vautour II B : 9.0 → 8.7
- Move down to rank 5
Air RB:
- SO 4050 Vautour II A : 9.0 → 8.7
- Move down to rank 5
I doubt at which BR I’d like to see Tu-4. At 7.0 it will face a lot of enemies, that can just run away forever. On the other hand, Tu-4 has very strong armament and it can be problematic for players at 5.7. I decided to ask for 6.7 to see, how it’ll play in best conditions and then it can go up after decompression.
Vehicle: Type 81 C
BR: 11.7 → 11.3
Mode: GRB
Reason: It is simply not good enough for 11.7, you dont have the range to launch vs competent CAS player shooting AGMs, you cant shoot down the AGMs, on non flat maps you dont have the reaction speed vs low flying heils/planes.
