They have the exact same capabilities outside of a scenario that’s irrelevant for balancing (high skilled 1v1s)
There is zero reason to have them at different brs
Sorry I wrote incorrectly.
So.
Why Gaijin implement a navalised version of the same jet? What more it can do that the C can’t?
That’s what I wanted to ask. Sorry my bad.
ZBD86 8.0 → 7.7
While the other BMP-1Ps are equipped with 9M113s with 530mm penetration the ZBD86 has HJ-73Es with 800mm penetration tandem warhead

Vehicle: F18A
Gamemode: Air Realistic
BR Change: 12.3 —> 12.7
Reason: The F-18 also needs to be part of the decompression; it’s too new an airframe, with too good a kit, to remain at 12.3.

I thought it was dumb that the MKK and ADF were both being moved up considering the MKK is far better (and deserved to be moved up) that I completely forgot that the F-16CM is also a 13.7 lmao. There really is 0 reason in playing the ADF when the F-16CM is better in almost every single way.
Vehicle: Ta 152 C-3
Gamemode: Air Realistic
BR Change: 6.3 —> 5.7
Reason: The only good aspect of this plane is the forward facing armament. It is weaker in every other regard when compared to contemporary fighter planes be it climb rate, turn rate or speed.

CAS nerfs across the board.
Sorry, that is not what I wanted to ask.
Why Gaijin gave us a naval version of the already in-game Rafale C? What the M can do that the C can’t?
That is what I wanted to ask sorry for incorrection.
Vehicle: F18C early
Gamemode: Air Realistic
BR Change: 12.7 —> 13.0
Reason: The F-18C arly also needs to be part of the decompression; Because it has better missiles (AIM-7P), 2 more missiles than the F-18A, if the A is to move up, the C also has to progress from there.
observation:.It needs the addition of the AIM-9M to its loadout in order to move up to 13.0.

Look at performance charts.
They have the exact same IRCCM, R73 is usable outside of direct rear aspect shots, and J11B doesn’t carry pl5 anyway,
After buffs all missiles are much closer in performance outside of GNSS(120D/PL12A), Derby, and MICA-EM.
Bad/average stats means an incomplete understanding of the game, and thus the opinion of that player is also incomplete/bad.
2-3kd is a bad number when you compare it to 6-7 kd.

Vehicle: M1A2T
Mode: Ground Realistic
BR Change: 13.0 → 13.3
Reason: If the M1A2(Great Britain) BR is going up to 13.3, why M1A2T at 13.0? just addition of the ERA ?

UH-1B/UH-1D
Ground Realistic
8.3 → 8.3
They’re near identical (I think the UH-1D is longer) so I’ll group em together.
Like all the other early choppers, there is absolutely no reason for the UH-1B/D to be raised. They’re armed with six AGM-22 missiles, which are only slightly more consistent than Falangas, and they have no defensive armament against planes. They have no counter to any SAMs either.
They already suck at 8.3 and are rarely spawned. 9.0 is an insane BR for AGM-22 Hueys.

mostly due to players request
Vehicle: mirage 2000C S5/ S4
Gamemode: Air Realistic
BR Change: 12.3 —> 12.7
Reason: Good flight model, 2x Magic IIs, a decent radar, a good number of countermeasures, and both an RWR and MAWS…this aircraft has everything it needs to be at 12.7. It was a real struggle to get it moved up to 12.7; I don’t know why they’re moving it back down to 12.3…it doesn’t belong there.
Observation:.The Super 530s need a buff to be on par with the AIM-7s and R-27s.
Almost assuredly a typo. Ironically this update doesn’t have much in the way of “French tax” from a BR perspective, aside from the EMBT (but Germany has that as well)
The real tax is the non-French design tax with the PRTL getting added at 8.7 instead of actual French SPAA options that would address the gap

Vehicle: Mirage 4000
Mode: Air realistic
Change: BR 13.0->12.7
Reason: This thing is severely hampered in any kind of medium to long range engagement by the extremely subpar Matra Super 530D and its HDN only pulse doppler mode. While the Magic 2 is a great missile, even 8 of them do not make up for the fact that this plane has little to no game presence against a majority of planes at or even below its own battle rating.

You must have never played ZBD86, as HJ73E is completely incapable of attacking close-range targets, and the damage after penetration is extremely poor

That’s it
And hype (money)
Gaijin likes to do these things
Look at the new jagdpanther, F-14D, 12.0 abrams etcetc

Scout AH.Mk.1
Ground Realistic
8.3 → 8.3
Again, moving this to 9.0 is absolutely insane. Its only armament is four AGM-22s, and some 7.62mm machine guns.
There is no reason it should be higher than Gepards, or the same BR as long-range IRCCM SAMs.

Vehicle: F15A
Gamemode: Air Realistic
BR Change: 12.7 —> 13.0
Reason: This aircraft has always been a 13.0; lowering its BR was never justified. We have the Mirage 4000 and the Gripen A sitting at 13.0 with much more limited loadouts than the F-15A, this plane should never have been dropped to 12.7.
Take him back to the place where he belongs.
