Carrier BRC should always be -13 degrees off of the ship's nose 

Because that is the angle of the angle deck 

And that is what determines the runway on the ship 

The runway heading on the ship is always -13 degrees off of the ship's bow 

The problem with the BRC being incorrect it will not allow f18 to capture the ACLS 

Because the AI controller always calls the boc 1° off of the ship's head 

So when you try and fly that BRC you don't line up with runway properly and you cannot catch the ILS or the glideslope properly 

Which means you can't use the ACLS because of it but in addition to that 

Your plane comes in at the wrong angle so you don't catch the runway properly either 

This seems like something that's easy to fix 

Also something that I've noticed and I think this is related to that 

Right after I call platform 

In the air I controller confirms the platform 

My data link information disappears 

It's also prevents the airplane from being able to capture ACLS

I think it's related to the other issue

Look at that point the aircraft is actually far off the actual BRC that it should be on to capture the glide slope and ILS 

Hope we can fix this soon along with brightening the lights you need to brighten the lights on a super carrier you can't see it until it's too late

No it shouldn't, because that's not what the BRC describes.

BRC is the ship's heading, the bearing down the landing area (about 10° left of the BRC) is referred to as final bearing (which is what marshal calls out during a CASE III - i.e. the case where ACLS is applicable). You shouldn't be using BRC with ACLS or with CASE III approaches.

Angled deck is 9 degrees.

However, the BRC and FB reported by the super carrier comms system always seems to be 1 degree off from actual magnetic BRC/FB.
