Vehicles equipped with this weapon
General info
The M10 is a development of the earlier M4. The most noticeable changes are an increased rate of fire (165 rpm) and a much larger ammo capacity which is made possible by a disintegrating link belt.
Available ammunition
- Default: HEFI-T* · AP-T
- Universal: HEFI-T* · HEFI-T* · AP-T
- Ground targets: AP-T

Comparison with analogues
Give a comparative description of cannons/machine guns that have firepower equal to this weapon.
Usage in battles
Describe the cannon/machine gun in the game - its distinctive features, tactics of usage against notable opponents. Please don't write a "guide" - do not impose a single point of view, but give the reader food for thought.
Pros and cons
Pros:
- Slightly higher rate of fire than the 37 mm M4
- HE shells do significant damage to single-engine aircraft
Cons:
- Inaccurate in full auto, should be restrained to single shot
- Still useless AP shell
- HE shell doesn't do well against sturdy airframes, often requiring multiple hits
- Slow muzzle velocity
History
Examine the history of the creation and combat usage of the weapon in more detail than in the introduction. If the historical reference turns out to be too long, take it to a separate article, taking a link to the article about the weapon and adding a block "/History" (example: https://wiki.warthunder.com/(Weapon-name)/History) and add a link to it here using the main template. Be sure to reference text and sources by using <ref></ref>, as well as adding them at the end of the article with <references />.
Media
Excellent additions to the article would be video guides, screenshots from the game, and photos.
See also
Links to the articles on the War Thunder Wiki that you think will be useful for the reader, for example:
- reference to the article about the variant of the cannon/machine gun;
- references to approximate analogues by other nations and research trees.
External links
Paste links to sources and external resources, such as:
- topic on the official game forum;
- other literature.
