Lowering the BR of the Me 410 A-1/U2

Lowering the BR of the Me 410 A-1/U2:

A couple days ago I made a post on reddit on the Me 410 A-1/U2 (BR 4) and Bf 110 G-2 (BR 3) and how they compare against each other, the results being clearly in favor of the Bf 110.

The Me 410 is simliar in handling and speed, has a worse climb rate, while having weaker CAS options.

The Me 410 has theoretically better survivability against enemy planes, but the difference is so small that it doesn’t really justify its high BR. I would suggest lowering its battle rating from 4 to 3, making this aircraft more relevant and enjoyable to use.

Thoughts?

To be fair im preety confident that the G2 is only BR 3 because DF had not figured out how to give foldered tanks a diffrent BR than the rest (during the creation of the tree). Similar to the initial jagdpanzer 4 beeing in BR 5 when it is in reality just a turretless panzer 4.
Not sure why it wasnt moved yet but that is just speculation on my part so maybe someone intended it to be BR 3 and im just wrong.

So would you be against or in favor of a BR change for this Me 410 variant?

Most likely just switch the Me 410 with the G2 in BR as the G2 has way better CAS potential.

Makes sense. Both aircraft perform similar
