Very bold assumption, bf109 f4 will not get 250kg even if su9 is lower to BR3. Balance has never worked in this way. Otherwise where is the German equivalent of svt38, tu2, universal carrier? Plus scotti is still handicapped by 15round.
La7 is just a bad fit for the job and pure air superiority fighter has little place in this game. The correct choice should be yak9b with its 4x100kg bombs.

Yak 9B could definitely also get added, and then you have the option of 4 100kg bombs, or 2 100 kg bombs plus the extra maneuverability?
4x100kg every single day. The performance of yak9b is enough for BR3. Plus, I have yak9k as my first choice, so I can’t see myself using la5fn or la7.
Well depends La 7 and G.55 are better aircrafts then this 3:
As you can see if there is aircraft that needs to be BR III its the Ki-61 then the P-63A-10 and then G-6 then G-55 and only then La-7 however I can only for sure say that Ki-61 and P-63A-10 belong in BR III. G-6 also is Ok for BR III almost but still with G.55 are very on the border between BR IV and BR III and La-7 is really the best. So if there is aircrafts that the devs can move to BR III are Ki-61 and P-63A-10 the rest for now can stay in BR IV specially after the BR III BF received its bombs.
These are all aircraft that can be buffed or downtiered too. Because of how the forum works, you have to suggest downtiers for different items individually in separate posts.
Trying to shoehorn all of these changes into one post, or even worse, trying to argue that no planes should move because they all need buffs, is unproductive.
After this one gets its bombs all they need to do is give La-5FN bigger bombs
- Suggestions / Vehicles - Enlisted — official forummove Ki-61 and P-63A-10 to BR III and you will have very balanced build. G.55, G6 and La7 can all stay in BR IV for now since they are far better aircrafts. Ki-61 ,P-63A-10 , BF 109 F-4 and La-5FN are very close in performance. While La-7,G-6 and G.55 are better aircrafts specially the La-7.
Put a BR 4 option Aswell (replace the nerf option) and I think you will have all agreements (it should be lowered in BR). Just not on the where

Easy. Downtier the I-185 (M-82).
If the developers insist on a BR 5 fighter also existing, port the I-185 (M-71) from War Thunder:
Well there is good candidates for a BR V fighters or BR IV:
All this aircrafts are good. Yak-9UT with the 45 mm cannon can destroy even king tigers. ITP can carry 8 big rockets and has acceptable stats and La-7B-20 is just a beast. I-185 is also OK but for sure I would prefer the other 3 over the I-185 (M-71) that is not bad for boom and zooms and has good bombs but still the other 3 are also amazing planes that would love to see in USSR TT simply they have different strengths. ITP (M-1) with 8 × RBS-82 rockets will be probably the best option for BR V soviet aircraft since they have good bombs at BR V but miss rockets.

La-7 could be on BR 3 but if i’m being honest, i’d prefer it on BR 4 instead.
That being said, i think both P-51 and Ki-100 should be moved up to BR 4 as well.
Because why the fighter airplanes with high speed/maneuverability, plus 2x 250kg/500 lbs bombs on BR 3? They will perform even better now thanks to the upcoming feature that allows one take less fuel for their airplanes.

makes me happy to see some plane love (fuel, bombs on 109)…love some good plane discussion
my issue moving all the way to BR 3 is a few reasons
1: Ki-100 if we are being honest, it is as much a BR 3 fighter as the Mk IX spitfire is a BR 2 plane (as much fun as it is clubbing shit)…
2: Mustang is Borderline Not BR 3 either, but perhaps forgiven as its real strength is altitude fighting. In Enlisted its mainly used as a bomb barge)
3: Continuity… No need to cut the La-5s lunch, it’s already a very SOLID BR-3 fighter. La-7 is just more of the same but BETTER
Where possible I think there should be progression, where everything gets a chance (as much as possible) …it’s not needed at BR 3 cos the La-5 is already great…no need to make it redundant… and the Yak 9-k is there too (and that’s pretty stupid at BR 3…)
La-5 is a great fighter at BR 3
La-7 has little trouble with BR 4-5 props

The problem with Mustang and Ki-100 is that if you move them there is not much in the Allies TT and Japanese TT they dont have good ground attackers at BR III like USSR and Germany:
This two aircrafts are on two different squads and you can rotate them while Japan and US really have no ground attackers on this scale and removing their fighters that perform the role of this ground attackers will absolutely destroy BR III specially for Japan where you don’t have amazing tanks also not only Ground attackers.
Still waiting for that to be fixed too
Never ever xD you gonna wait 3 years until they add a plane that we need just look what planes they are adding something no one asked for xD

I didn’t realize the La-5FN historically could mount 100kg bombs. I typically go as far as checking War Thunder if a vehicle already exists in game. Thank you for bringing this up!
So yes, La-5FN getting a bomb upgrade would probably be fine too. Like @YUI_SaltyPlayer mentioned too, there is a world where perhaps the standard BR 3 fighter is weaker, maybe more comparable to this plane.

I think this is more of issue for Japan but not for USA because you can actually use 2 different P-51 if you have the BP version of P-51 as well. This means that you can actually cycle P-51 with 2x 250 kg bombs. Plus, USA gets the top, if not outright OP attackers on BR 3 which is XA-38. And there’s also Whirlwind l which is in statwise, i believe it’s even better tham Bf 110 AFAIK. Yes they are not TT, but they exists and actually common enough(At least the XA-38 for sure)to impact the BR 3 gameplay. So i think P-51 should be moved to BR 4(And hopefully XA-38 too)for sure. Ki-100 could be stay on BR 3 till they adds something for BR 3 Japan but after that, Ki-100 should be also moved up to BR 4 i think.

Yeah my friend I agree but now Germany will have the best BR III fighter after the Update Germany BR III will be the best faction since you will have BR V plane in BR III
This aircraft 
will become this 
:
And the FW rockets are better.
I rather doubt 30% fuel will make this any less of an instant loss to just about ANY other fighter at BR 3…or BR 2 for that matter(short of a bushwack or headon)…its not going to start magically turning better than the rest OR out speeding. Its the slowest fighter, or was the last time I tested (granted that was a while back)

This is true. Fw 190 A-8 is a very nice plane as well for BR 3(It has a terrible turn ratio with garbage flaps but it’s good enough for rockets alone, i guess). Once the other overpowered BR 3 fighters addressed, maybe Fw 190 A-8 should be also move up to BR 4 as well.

J2M3 definitely has no business being at BR 5. It would be totally fine at BR 3.
