The new heli br changes lifted Z-11WA to 9.7.
Imagine a slow-speed heli with 4 HJ-8/C missiles which can only fly 3 km at a speed of 220m/s, facing Gepard 1A2s and Shilkas…
I guess Gaijin staff members have never played Chinese helis themselves…

Because it has thermals and is agile /ssssss
It makes 0 sense it got uptiered again but not enough players are complaining about it to bring a fuzz to the issue, being 9.7(10.7 really, is not like every match is an uptier) with only 3 km missiles while other helicopters at the same br or even lower have 3.5 km, 3.75 km or even 4 km in the case of the Gazelle in the same tree while being the exact same BR
Gotta love “”“balancing”“”
It’s not really that slow, but really you don’t do anything with speed if you can’t engage aircraft. Actually I would even say that speed just gets you killed since it makes the copter drift faster towards the ground battle area.
Consider playing the gazelle, once you have HJ8Es unlocked it massively outperforms the Z11.
