MITL is ruining ground battles

It has to be said, one of the best updates ever. Good job, Gaijin.
Only thing I really don’t like is the attack planes with low br in air to air modes with buffed missiles. Attack planes don’t need to be competitive in A2A since nuclear thunder exists, IMHO. R-73 for the SU-25 at 9.7 is ridiculous. R-77 at 12.7 for the SU-39 is also not really needed.

The type of cluster bombs used by US Navy and Marine planes, haven’t been modelled yet. They don’t use the two types that have already been given to the US planes.

- Z-9W — the Battle Rating in Ground Battles has been reduced from 10.7 to 9.7. The use of TY-90 missiles increases the Battle Rating to 10.7.
- Z-9WA — the Battle Rating in Ground Battles has been reduced from 11.3 to 10.3. The use of TY-90 missiles increases the Battle Rating to 11.0. The use of AKD-9 missiles increases the Battle Rating to 11.3.
- Z-19 (all var iants) — the Battle Rating in Ground Battles has been reduced from 12.3 to 11.0. The use of TY-90 missiles increases the Battle Rating to 12.3.
Finally, a solution appeared. However, it is lamentable that this has come at a time when ratings of most high-tier aircraft and helicopters in Ground RB are excessively high in comparison to SPAA systems. If the relevant BR changes are not addressed, CAS aircraft will continue to be miserable to play, whether or not we have variable BR. The only difference is we will have 2 or 3 BRs to suffer at, rather than just 1; it’s like only having the ability to select between multiple types of short-sleeved shirts at a time in the winter when any such shirt will leave you in the cold. At this time, a jacket or heavier clothing is needed. A choice between two inadequate options doesn’t fix the underlying problem with either of them.
@Smin1080p_WT yo we gunna get some Q&A on this bs of a mechanic.
If this is how you want gameplay to be with zero counter player from SAMs then by all means but we didnt want this trash mechanic so we need some limits now to helipads/SP changes or something

Which still have much better chance to kill than both agm65d and agm65g (thanks to carrier speed agm65d can even drop dead in the woods sometimes). And then add to that 16 vikhrs and 2 kh25mpu. And ability to use kh31p while still being below harriers and same br as a10c.
Su39 doesnt face pantsirs as well.
The meta is still very much fire and forget TV/IR
I can’t use GBU-64’s on my premium F-2 without going up 0.7 BR in air RB??? I’m sorry???
WHY
this is a poorly thought out system, air to ground stuff shouldn’t increase the BR in air RB for crying out loud.
Nuclear Escalation mode
Yet another forgotten Me 210/410
not worth going up 0.7 for in air RB if I want to hit ground targets there, plus they’re not exactly super useful at 13.7 nuclear escalation either. I played my F-2 several times at 13.0, and it was only good at going full air to air against players.
They’re pretty useful. That’s why its an optional BR preset, you can stay at 13.0 for just the early A2A loadout, or go 14.0 for the Fox 3’s

Even the Greek MoD calls it the 2A6 HEL on occasion.
This is an absolute insane amount of whining for something that is A) already the way you want it to be in-game, and B) an alternative name that is clearly at least semi-frequently used by the both manufacturer and operator of the vehicle.

the 14.0 option to basically have a premium version of the TT one is great, but this change is awful for bombing bases in air RB for extra RP.
Its a fighter, strong one
The harrier (for all that it is treated terribly) is a far more agile platform, that maintains better speed control and generally more reliable munitions.
they should’ve kept it at 13.0 air RB with that loadout, and change only NE if that was the reason. same goes for the su-25sm3, kh-38’s don’t make it an 11.7 plane in air RB
