BATTLEFIELD 6 VEHICLE META

In the current meta, tanks are kings. They have great defensive options, insane offensive ones, they can hit air targets easily, and they can take down infantry (despite the statement that they’re anti-vehicle mostly). If you want to win every match, learn how to play Main Battle Tank, or at least Infantry Fighting Vehicle. It’s a crazy overpowered choice right now. If you have a good gunner on your side, you can turn this powerful choice into an unkillable one.

Here’s a list for Battlefield 6 vehicle meta:

S-Tier
  • Main Battle Tank
  • Infantry Fighting Vehicle
  • Attack Jet
  • A-Tier
  • Attack Helicopter
  • Fighter Jet
  • B-Tier
  • Mobile Anti-Air
  • C-Tier
  • Light Ground Transport
  • Transport Helicopter
  • As you can see, the better the vehicle’s offensive options are, the higher it goes. The only exceptions from this list are an attack jet and a fighter jet. Neither of them can be customized, which doesn’t hinder their capabilities.

    BEST MBT LOADOUT

    The most dominant vehicle in the entire game, Main Battle Tank rips through anything it faces. This vehicle has, hands down, the best loadout customization options among all machinery.

    Take a look at this Battlefield 6 best MBT loadout:

  • **Primary:** High Explosive. Does splash damage to infantry. Good damage to vehicles.
  • **Alternate Ammo:** Aim-Guided. Allows to snipe targets further away. Able to hit aircrafts easily.
  • **Secondary:** Coaxial HMG. Better at range, especially in third person.
  • **Equipment:** Projectile Intercept/Thermal Blocking Smoke. APS needs to be activated in advance and provides longer protection. Thermal Blocking can be used as a panic button.
  • **Upgrade:** Reinforced Plating. Contrary to what it says in the description, it doesn't reduce max speed and acceleration. You get more survivability literally at no cost.
  • MBT Gunner:
  • **Remote Weapon:** Light Machine Gun. Generally, a better choice as it shoots more ammo and overheats slower.
  • **Equipment:** Countermeasure. Throwing landmines is a current meta against tanks, so mine countermeasure is a no-brainer.
  • When using MBT, make sure that you have support nearby. Despite heavy armor, you’re still the main target for everybody who sees you. Pick your position in a smart way and watch your KD skyrocket.

    BEST IFV LOADOUT

    Infantry Fighting Vehicle might have fewer varied loadout options, but it still has access to the majority of the important ones. Funnily enough, it’s still good against armored vehicles, so on the maps where MBT is inaccessible, IFV is a monster. Unlike MBT, it has access to 2 equipment options.

    Here’s the best IFV loadout in Battlefield 6:

  • **Primary:** High Explosive. Decent damage to vehicles + splash damage to infantry.
  • **Alternate Ammo:** Aim-Guided. Easily takes down helis and has an okay splash damage.
  • **Equipment 1:** Thermal-Blocking. The best protection option for IFV, simple as that.
  • **Equipment 2:** Threat Detector. Helps to take the objectives easier as you always know if someone tries to sneak up on you.
  • **Upgrade:** Reinforced Plating. Same reason as for MBT. Survivability with zero drawbacks.
  • IFV Gunner:
  • **Remote weapon:** Light Machine Gun. The best tool against infantry, especially combined with a Threat Detector.
  • On the maps where both IFV and MBT are accessible, IFV loses to its bigger counterpart. However, don’t feel discouraged. It’s slightly less powerful, yet has more maneuverability.

    BEST MOBILE AA LOADOUT

    Mobile Anti-Air is not in the best place right now. With main anti-air weaponry available to 2 other tanks, reasons to use this one are pretty little. It has limited customization slots and a pretty bad Primary weapon. But hey, sometimes you gotta use what you can to win.

    Look at this Battlefield 6 best Mobile AA loadout:

  • **Primary:** High-Velocity. Only viable against air targets and infantry. Useless against ground targets. Pro-Tip! Aim in third person if you don't want to be blinded.
  • **Equipment:** Thermal-Blocking. A great panic button that will help you escape tricky situations.
  • **Upgrade:** Enhanced Loading/Systems Upgrade. Pick the first one if you're gonna use anti-armor missiles and the second for high-velocity rounds.
  • Hopefully, developers will either buff this poor fella, or give it much better weapons to use against jets and helicopters. Otherwise there’s very little reason to drive it.

    BEST ATTACK HELICOPTER LOADOUT

    Since all vehicles in this part had been slowed to feel heavier, Attack Helicopter is no different. Controlling it feels much clunkier than in previous games, especially compared to Battlefield 2042. Nevertheless, it has such a great number of options available, that it makes it really close to being S-Tier.

    Try this Battlefield 6 best Attack Helicopter loadout and dominate the skies:

  • **Primary:** Heavy Rockets. Much better than the other options. Overtuned and they do ungodly amounts of damage.
  • **Secondary:** Aim-Guided/Anti-Air. First one does a ton of damage if you can aim. Pick the second one if the jets get on your nerves.
  • **Equipment 2:** Emergency Repair. Unlike with other vehicles, this emergency kit is invaluable, since you won't get access to Engineers at all times. It can get you out of a tailspin as soon as you use it.
  • **Upgrade:** Improved Armor/Heavy Warheads. First one decreases small arms damage by 50%! It's insane how much use you'll get from it. Pick the second if you struggle to aim accurately. Bear in mind it hits your maneuverability.
  • Piloting a helicopter is as fun and as difficult as it always has been, and the Heavy Rockets make it 10 times more deadly than before. Try this loadout and you’ll definitely fall in love with Attack Helicopter.
