So you think it has to have the same BR as the AD-4? What a joke.

Right, because being able to straight up destroy a team with only an aircraft cannon in 1 run is anyhow balanced at the moment. Even if someone spawns a SPAA afterwards, the plane will already have 2-3 ground kills atleast and it’s not like it’s not agile enough to dodge SPAA fire if they have to be defensive. Not to mention that we already have separate BRs for air gamemodes and ground gamemodes when it comes to planes, I really don’t see why it should stay where it is. Both Yak-9s that can take the 45mm cannon are not anyhow balanced at the moment with that APHE shell.
If anything, it should be an even bigger wake up call for Gaijin to realize that CAS in ground is still OP as always and should face some nerfs or balance. Even just making SPAAs get 2x-3x the rewards for plane destroys while maybe lowering ground kills to 0.5x rewards would solve the issue, since they aren’t supposed to be tank destroyers with less armor, there should be a reason with personal gain in mind to stay in a SPAA vehicle and actively watch the sky for planes.

it’s agile enough in fact to dogfight most enemy planes it can meet with the right tactics.
Duck ain’t doing that.
P39 is, but solid shot.

Gaijin has a policy of “add first, ask questions later” when it comes to Russian CAS apparently.

Or make APHE work as it should rather than a grenade that loses all inertia and forward velocity after reaching the center of the crew compartment.

id rather it loses its APHE so its not just the 50mm me 262 at low tier

6.0 is probably too extreme but every single Yak. Especially the Yak-9s need a major BR review, they have excellent FMs but were handicapped by poor gun performance. They now have some of the best guns of their respective BRs
Though in a GRB CAS role… Probably could go up higher still

We almost had that, except entitled f*cks made up all kinds of excuses about how it would break the whole game, so now we have APHE still breaking the good part of the game and having every single shell that can’t one shot stupidly like that be called bad. We don’t even know if Gaijin ever will revisit that vote.

Yeah Yeah! That’s what I mean! Most Big-shot planes either (A) have crap maneuverability HS 129 (duck),
Ju 87 G1&2 and the P.108. or (B) have only soild shot that requires really good aim and/or a lot of shots.
P 39, P 63 (the yellow one), etc.

I mean I DID see my Panther A (6.0) get molested by a Yak-9. I was like, “what are these little hails falling? Wait is that a Yak------”.

AD-4 at least needs some skills to (A) aim the rockets (B) use the 20mils to attack tanks (C) maneuver since its not a fighter with an orbital strike cannon that fires High Velocity Anti-Tank Armor-piercing ballistic Capped Fin-Stabilized-Laser-Guided Gaijin-Bugged munitions.

dont forget P63 can also bombs and rockets so they can kill every tank and in my opinion most important, multible spaa with a short attack due to the bomb…
All bombs can kill all tanks mate. But that is one or maybe at most three bombs not a few hundred rounds from a BT-7 gun.

That is what the YaK-9K is capable of firing. Have you not looked at the Reddit post link I put on?
And if you only know blyatt then why post that Russian doc that won’t be useful since no one understands?

Yeah sorry that the experienced good players did not want a change that benefits bad players to go through.
