Planned Battle Rating Changes for February 2025
Hi everyone! Today we’re introducing a round of planned Battle Rating changes for February.

We have a number of planned changes for ground vehicles, aircraft and naval vehicles in most modes. Please check them out and let us know what you think.

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/e/2PACX-1vR3ijSdKfwpfrJlLg2PjXCSjtxuhhuNXMDhn9NMmqgkzhXzRzbd-LRtZnmTGxaY0Zdp41-FMk-66k4h/pubhtml

Removing the R2Y2 aircraft from research
Along with the planned Battle Rating changes, we also plan to remove the R2Y2s from research on April 30th. A fully detailed article on this can be found here: https://gtm.steamproxy.vip/games/236390/announcements/detail/530963170347451035

Leaving feedback and suggestions

In order to properly and efficiently take on board your feedback, we’ll consider one vehicle change / request per comment in order to keep the flow of feedback clear for everyone and allow for better collaboration and comprehension of requests.

Note: Please don’t make lists — comments that contain more than one suggestion will not be considered. If you’d like to suggest more, please use the one-comment-one vehicle rule using the template below. You can leave more than one comment in this thread, there’s no limit to this.

Here’s an example template (per comment):
Mode, vehicle name. 8.0 > 8.3. Reasoning.

If you’d like to write more proposals and participate more actively in proposing changes, make sure to invite your friends and like proposals from other players that you agree with!

We’ll be reading your feedback on the planned Battle Rating changes, so please share your thoughts and suggestions! Make sure to read comments from other players and click on the ‘like’ button on suggestions that you think are most important so that we can see them.

The War Thunder Team.

KV1 needs to have a higher BR, as of right now it is the best Heavy tank in it's tier with almost no debuff, the British early heavy tanks are balanced because they have sucky cannons but the early Russian heavy tanks have nothing of the sort and are just broken I would recommend a 0.3-0.6 BR increase.
(note this is a comment on ONLY the KV1 and nothing else)
((second note I do play this game))
(((in case you're wondering)))
((((bye))))

SKR 1/7 Needs to be moved higher. They absolutely dominate every match they're in.
How about to to add about 35% to the front armor of M1A2 line ??

There are many KV-1s in game.

KV-1 with the Zis-5,
KV-1 with the L-11
KV-1S
Finnish KV-1
KV-1E
KV-1B

So depends on what KV-1 you even mean.

Please consider dropping the BR of the UH-1C XM30 with the UH-1B. It’s next to impossible to use at 9.0 and above as an 8.7 and imo should be 8.3 anyway to go along with the US ground 8.3 line up.

You can easily destroy a KV1 with 110-130 heat

Please move up top tier jet's (14.0) in ground battles from 12.7 to 13.0 so we can avoid premium players,now players with experiance cannot avoid premiums on top tier. That's a big problem,just give us a small chance to avoid premiums at least on top tier. Also many aircraft's and ground vehicle's are with no logical br's.. Do they care? i dont think,they only ussr fixing br

OTOMATIC down from 11.3 to 10.7 in AB, RB and SB.

At 11.3 he is completly outclassed by any Missile SPAA vehicle of the other Nations since he´s the only gun based SPAA up there.

And practically any Plane and Helicopter at it´s current BR possesed weapons that outranges him or are to fast to be effectively tracked and fired at them.
All long barreled Panzer IV´s (F2,G,H and J) should go up by .3 in BR.
They can outrange and outgun any Tank of the other nations by a sizeable degree and the F2 and G overshadows the Panzer III M almost immediatly due to their identical BR but having a superior armament.

I think they will add for start first top tier AA for itally and at the same time they will decrease br for OTOMATIC

Oh look br compression for jets, how surprising. Not

Air Realistic Battles; Hunter F.6 9.7>9.3 Speed and armament completely uncompetitive at 9.7, SRAAMs completely useless in an up tier.
I think chinese z_19e helicopter should 11.3 to 11.0
They should make Germany rank 5 playable finally
To really balance the BR for Tanks, they should just order them by armor thickness & shell penetration for each era. There are so many tanks that have high BR based on armor but their shells are unable to penetrate such thickness while others over-penetrate and deal little damage.

For example:
Churchill VII/Churchill Crocodile - 4.7 RB -> 4.0 RB - Armor thickness matches BR but Ammunition penetrative power is far weaker than 90% of possible opponents armor thickness.

YaG-10 (29-K) - 3.3 RB -> 3.7 RB - Ammunition penetrative power is much greater than the average armor thickness of 90% of possible opponents armor.
