Yes, I know the difference between B.R. and Rank. Thank you tho. It’s that he just said ~8 which doesn’t, tell if it is BR or Rank. I assumed 8.0 'cause who the hell brings a 4.0 plane in a 12.0 match? Of course there are exceptions like me bringing my 6.0 German lineup to 11.0 and still get assists.
Yak 9K@ BR 4.7
→ Damage: Nukes the entire turret crew
→ Plane: Nimble small figther
Ta-152 C3 @BR 6.3
→ Damage: non existing
→ Plane: Garbage with a turning radius of a bomber
Conclusion: No RusSiaN bIaS

Just had a nice match, did 3 kills with T-34-85 to later spawn Yak-9K to gather enough SP for nuke. I have died in Yak-9K only because after spawning a nuke, the AI system crashed it into the ground. When I was flying nuke plane, I have noticed that enemy have spawned one too, so I engaged in a fight with it. Later I have dropped a nuke and ended the game.

Loks like T29 or 34.
LOL. Can’t wait to finish US 5.3(Naval+Army+Air) to move on to USSR as part of my chally!
at least other cannon CAS have a mediocre flight performance or poor pen (P-39, P-63) the yak-9k can still dogfight , I mean sure the 45mm may be hard to hit planes with but
A- you still have your 50cal with API.
B-A little practice with your 45mil goes a long way.
C- I feel like people may be too used to the power of the Shvak 20mil cannon.
Because they gave it an absolutely busted round, that performs way better than it should compared to other similar rounds. Then gave the Yak 9k a very generous flight performance, as in it flies better than some other Yak’s which don’t have the giant cannon.
Oh, they also made the cannon super accurate, and firing it has zero impact on the plane. When IRL the entire plane came apart and the pilots would get knocked around to the point of getting concussions when shooting. Oh, and the accuracy was so horrible, it wasn’t even worth fielding.

a thing made of wood + soviet manufacture + 45mm cannon don’t mix well
Very balanced.
