The amount of 9.5 Armor was tested some time befor I became memere of CF fleet and thy told to me. Alo we try some another test from 9.5 to 11.2 and in GB we find no differece.

For example in BB3 fight wit 7.0 UK and KM armor you are able to defend against all 15' with 30 degre. BUT Nelly 16, and SN penetrate it.

I try find some numbers abaut HA penetraation in NF but didnt find much.

With 9.5 on deck L1, L2, QV and IOWA, can deflect at max range ALL BB4 expect Yammy, Stalinged. from BB5 H44, Veneto, and Alsac (Im not sure).

The AP penetrate much more. from L1 abaut 20-22 lose ability to penetrate 9.5.

I thing that eaven KM 11' AP can penetrate at max range.

On 40 I was able to penetrate with US 12' from GUAM/ALSKA AW QV, but only ting that he has abaut 10.0' deck

The L2 still has the lowest APHC of all BB5s by quite a way, with second lowest being the Alsace at 4200, compared to the 4500 cap that most BB5s are set to atm, the L2 still comes out at 4050 (up from a mere 3400), aka raised to just over 4k. And it still maintains all of its other national characteristics and traits, while still being lowest submergence.

The change isn't that unreasonable, it doesn't have any impact on how the BB5s are ordered in their abilities. L2 was the most durable before, and it still is.

A properly used T5 scout couldn't be caught by any fighters, T4s could only catch lazy ones that weren't being microd. Unless a CV used groups of fighters to surround it and kill with some head on passes. The only difference now is that T5s cant escape from T4s in a straight line, T4s can only just keep up.

Although, changes to the scouts are only really temporary, a great deal more aircraft changes will be done with the upcomming major aircraft patch.

T5 scouty?
the old T5 is op indeed ,but only not for the speed 
the engage speed of T4 ftr can already catched the old T5 scout
the only thing T5 has is to increase the speed and nerf the fuel
now u nerf the speed
make a good FW cv controll the entire battle.nomatter how good the BB is
cuz all scouts can be catched by ftr!

the change to T5 scouts could have have waited, considering now with t5 scout on monty i have nice vision till the t4 fighters appear and since i can only have 3 onboard its not really good to use. aircraft should have had the changes done in the same time.

Making T5 scouts catchable by T4 fighters has been the plan for years and this trend will continue in the major aircraft patch. So delaying the change until then wouldn't have changed anything.

I might take a look at BB5 scout spaces though since you mentioned that, maybe some refinement could be used.

well that would be nice benser also what would you think about suggestion to reduce the level of T5 scout to lvl 115, since its not as good as before there isnt really need for it to be at lvl120 and on bb6 it would be same level as engies and reps.

We actually have planned to make T5s lvl 115 for some time now also, although I can't ensure any changes get made and we have more than 1 plan which doesn't neccessarily mean we would do that.

But yeah, personally I'd prefer that.

Lol, we tried with SDE for ages to get them to change it. They never really understood us in the end, even though it changed about 6 times.

Although, I still can't really think of a short way to say "Decrease in the Amount of Space Taken Up by Torpedoes by -10%."

Decrease Torpedo Size... probably not wise.

For a while it was supposed to increase Torpedo Space, but then it got confusing because it sounded like it made torpedoes bigger instead of providing more space.
