Description
The 37 mm N-37 is a Soviet autocannon. A larger than average cannon, usually complemented on Soviet jets with 23 mm autocannons, the N-37 gives a stronger punch that can help reliably cripple or destroy enemy aircraft. A variant fitted with a muzzle brake was designated the N-37D.

Comparison with analogues
Give a comparative description of cannons/machine guns that have firepower equal to this weapon.
Usage in battles
The N-37 is a heavy cannon mounted on Soviet planes. It's capable of destroying most planes with a shot or two, and can be found from rank III to rank V planes. It is very useful for ground attack and in bomber hunting.
Pros and cons
Pros:
- Great firepower
- Useful for ground attack
- Acceptable firerate, becomes great in later variants
Cons:
- Low ammo count
- Low muzzle velocity
- Difficult to use in dogfights
- Usually paired with guns that have different ballistics
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 If the historical reference turns out to be too long, take it to a separate article, taking a link to the article about the weapon and adding a block "/History" (example: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.
