Sorry but most of the track add on armor is borderline useless anyway on the tiger 1s,
The PZ4 has no armor. The PZ4’s gun makes it so where the M4 and T34 do not have armor. Balanced. Peers. Equivalents.
maybe if you’re pointed at the .50 cal, if they see any of your side you still die afaik. When I played both of these tanks in prior years they did not have much different mobility with the C13 having better reaction/short term mobility because its not wheeled and the AUBL being faster long distance for the opposite reason
killing the ikv 103 and pvkv 2 by moving them to brs where there is practically nothing so there arent lineups for them. also removing anything you can pair the swedish sherman with is a bit sad. the entire 3.7 lineup is gone except the sherman.
Honestly dont really get some of these changes, sure the pvkv 2 has a good gun but thats about it, never struggled against it or the ikv 103. I get why some 3.7 vehicles are moving up tho. especially the sav it had it comming for a long time.
Edit: huge props for the turm 3, bmpt, sav, lago 1, yak-9k changes tho. Also while i hate to admitt it the saab 105g did deserve to be moved up too so thats a good one
Edit2: turan 3 nooooo (i fully get why its being moved)
Edit3: Honestly i kinda get why the m24s are moving but i dont agree with it. they are pretty uptier proof but they arent super op at 3.7 and a lot of lineups are losing their light tanks now

FW-190 A-4
Mode: ARB
BR Change: 4.0 → 3.7
The Fw-190 A-4 is currently outperformed by a lot of 4.0s in most terms except burstmass and rollrate, while it can use flaps to improve it’s turnrate, it still falls short the moment with it’s current foes, it is more capable to deal with the 3.7s however, since it’s speed starts to become above average.
Moving the FW-190 A family to 3.7 will help fill the dedicated fighter gap in the german tech tree at those BRs

vehicle: A-5C
gamemode: Air Realistic battles
BR Change: 10.7 → 10.3
reasoning: it is not equivalent in any way to the J-7D despite sharing the same BR, the limited amount of countermeasures combined with the FM which forces you to go slower than 900 km/h due to having high speed lockup does not make the player any favors in constant uptiers against superior aircraft or even the mentioned J-7D, even as a strike aircraft is limited due to having to compete with teammates with faster aircraft that also have access to a higher ammount of ordnance and even radars which the A-5C does not have, the only saving grace of the A-5C is the 2 magic missiles which does not make it 10.7 material and it struggles in any match

FW-190 A-5
Mode: ARB
BR Change: 4.3 → 3.7
The Fw-190 A-5, like the Fw-190 A-4, currently struggles with opponents above 4.0 that it sees on all matches. The A-5, despite not having an upgraded engine, has a center of mass located further forward, which helped improve turning performance compared to the A-4s, however, this is not seen in WT since it was removed, and if it doesn’t come back, the Fw-190 A-5 will be a carbon copy of performance compared to the Fw-190 A-4.

Vehicle: M13/40 (I)
BR Change: 1.7 → 1.3 or 1.0 (all modes)
Reason: This tank, like most tanks of this series, struggles against its own peers and feels useless against anything larger. It has a decent turret, good depression, and good explosive filler in its APHE, but has few advantages outside of this.
Few tanks sit at 1.7, making comparisons there difficult, but there are many tanks at 1.3 that are either comparable to or superior to the M13/40 (I). The Pz 38(t) Ausf A at 1.3 has less useful armor, but has better speed, a stabilizer, faster turret, and better RoF. The Pz III F has much better mobility and firepower and comparable armor with its only real disadvantage being the inferior turret shaping. The A13 Mk II is similar in this comparison to the Pz 38(t) Ausf. A, but with better mobility.
At 1.0, the Vickers Mk E only has enough armor to stop 7.62 MG fire, but has better RoF, shell velocity, HP/ton, and forward speed while the M14/40 (I) hold an edge with its explosive filler and armor. The Pz 35(t) has much better reverse speed, stabilizer, turret traverse, and engine power while the M14/40(I) as usual has only its combination of explosive filler, armor, and turret profile.
The turret alone may make this unsuitable for 1.0 as it is fairly small, well-shaped, and relatively thick, though most reserve cannons can still pierce this with a favorable hit. The lethargic speed, slow turret, subpar RoF, and unremarkable penetration hold this tank back greatly.

FW-190 A-5/U2
Mode: ARB
BR Change: 4.3 → 4.0 / 3.7
The Fw-190 A-5/U2 is a lighter FW-190 A-5 variant which sees the loss of the outmost pair of MG/FF cannons and keeps the more powerful MG151/20 wing root mounted cannons.
However unlike the Fw-190 A-5/U12, the U2 has a slighly lower wing loading, not enough to ensure a BR difference, but an economy difference would be needed.

Agree, this thing is notably worse than F15 GE, maybe worse than J10C because low CM.
Totally agree!!!
Panzer IV H and Puma need back to rank III.

FW-190 A-5/U2
Mode: ARB
BR Change: 4.3 → 4.0
The Fw-190 A-5/U12 is the last early A variant before the A-8 and the F-8, the U12 has a lower flight performance than the Fw-190 A-5/U2, however, it can use the underwing gunpods to bolster up it’s firepower for 4 extra MG151/20s and a grand total of 6 20mil cannons, being able to pack so much punch does overcome the 4.0 competition compared to the other variants which can struggle to keep up with said opponents, but in the current state of the Fw-190 A-5/U12, even with those extra 20mil added on top, it will struggle to get guns on target.

BMPT and BMPT-72 to 12.0 it can even do 12.3 with how broken its damage model still is. 10.3 might have been saved but now 10.7 is screwed.

You know the average KD of the vehicles you suggested to the M13 are below 1 while the M13 has above 1 KD right?
I’d say give it a a slightly faster reload and leave it as is.
Also that description for the Vickers MK.E is hilarious, armor can stop 7.62, yeah it has no armor and no survivability for being slightly faster. The gun is also worse for kills 30g of filler on the M13 next to the Vickers 15g
Also you can 7.62 the turret from behind or engine on the sides on the Vickers. It’s only 18mm which is worse than the M13
Vehicle: M18 Super Hellcat
Mode: Ground AB
BR: 6.3>5.7
Reason: Pretty much just a sidegraded m18 hellcat. Regular m18s are 5.3 in GAB, but for some reason this thing sits a whole 1.0 BR higher. Compare to regular m18s, the superhellcat gets a noticeable worse mobility, slightly worse gun traverse speed, a worse reload speed, limited first ammo rack all for a 90 mil (technically better scope but that’s periscope thing all over again). 90 mil can also be found on M36 which sits at 5.3, the superhellcat is just a faster version of it. Compare to M36B2 which sits at 5.7, the superhellcat gets a better mobility but B2 gets a HEATFS shell. Survivability wise, they are just the same, easily countered by HE shell.
Do-335 A-1
Mode: ARB
BR Change: 4.3 → 4.7
The Do-335 A-1 makes it’s differences in the fact that unlike the A-0 at 4.7, It can carry bombs but also can’t switch the pair of 15mm Cannons? (It is kind of the middle there) for a pair of 20mil. However the 15mil and 20mil cannons are equals in terms of A2A roles, 15mil offering better ballistics and armor penetration, while the 20mil offer devastating damage but high drag affecting ballistics. Despite this, the main weapon of these “Pfeils” is the 30mil mk-103 with a respectable punch and ballistics to help.
PZ IV J should stay 3.7 while the H goes to 4.0 the J is like the D of panthers its turret traverse is slow AF the H should go up with the rest of the 3.7s

will su22m3 gets deserved additional countermeasures? this plane become useless,more countermeasures at least can make it playable in both GRB and ARB.
