Ki-43-II is superior to Yak-1 and unlike Yak-1 carries bombs
BF-109E-7 can be BR II yes but its not better than Ki-43-II
What are you talking about Yak 1 has 2x100 kg bombs are you even playing this game… Lagg also is BR I plane with 2x100 kg bombs… and you have Hurricane…

Hurricane isnt better than Ki-43-II either lol
Yak-1’s seem to carry 2x 100kg bombs, ok BR II it can be
I know I play Yak-1 all the time its sometimes better option then BR II planes

id rather keep Yak-1 , BF-109E-7, Ki-43-II away from BR I planes such as E13, B5N, A5M4, BF-109C etc
I agree, that 7.7 mm is extremely bad to counter anything and the plane doesnt deserve to be in BR III
By the way, I think we have met in battle today, nice idea with hiding the tank in that barn, I barely noticed you before you have shot me from there

I already proposed BR I planes for japan
E13A1 (4x 60kg) - BR I
B5N2 (6x 60kg) - BR I
A5M4 (2x 60kg bombs) - BR I
Ki-43-I Ko (2x 30kg bombs) - BR I
But if it was up to me id remove E13
Well check Germany BR I and USSR BR I and US BR I and just compare tanks and planes and you will realize why its bad idea. Just open the game and compare them
Ki-43-I Ko is superior to Hurricane II/B for allies at BR 1 and Bufallo is even bigger turd
Ki-43-I Ko is better than all soviet BR I planes although the firepower on soviet hurricane and 6 rockets is concering, should be moved to BR II
6x 60kg on BR I plane for B5N2 is not bad especially with that agility and precision capability
And soviets have tanks with armor and good gun so is US while Japan has papper tanks so how you gonna destroy enemy tanks thats why Japan needs good planes with good bombs to compensate for their absolutely bad tanks. And im not gonna start with Germany that has all.
We can start with giving Ha-Go its 37mm Type 98 gun and fixing AP shells
adding Chi-Ha , Chi-Ha Kai to the main tree
We cant since the devs made very bad decisions for this tanks so the only solution is good planes. and Chi-Ha Kai is BR II tank.
Chi-Ha Kai can be BR I based on other nation BR I stuff
If M3 Stuart is BR 1, Chi-Ha kai which is more or less the equivalent can be BR I as well
Well im having it Chi-Ha Kai at the moment is event tank and is in BR II and its not very good BR II tank.
Ha-Go / late – BR I (55mm @ 0m penetration)
Ka-Mi – BR I (65mm @ 0m penetration)
Chi-Ha - BR I (55mm penetration HEAT)
Chi-Ha Kai - BR I (82mm @ 0m penetration)
Chi-He - BR II (82mm @ 0m penetration)
Ho-I - BR II (90-100mm HEAT penetration)
Chi-Ha 12cm - BR II
Chi-Nu - BR III (118mm @ 0m penetration)
Chi-Nu II - BR III (161mm @ 0m penetration)
Chi-To Prototype - BR IV (161mm @ 0m penetration)
Chi-To Production - BR IV (161mm @ 0m penetration)
Chi-Ri II - BR IV (161mm @ 0m penetration)
Ka-To - BR V (235mm @ 0m penetration)
O-I - BR V (55-60mm HE effect vs armour)
Ho-Ri II (real production) - BR V (265mm @ 0m penetration)
