This page is about the aircraft cannon M10 (37 mm). For other uses, see M10 (Disambiguation).

Description

Write an introduction to the article in 2-3 small paragraphs. Briefly tell us about the history of the development and combat using the weaponry and also about its features. Compile a list of air, ground, or naval vehicles that feature this weapon system in the game.

Vehicles equipped with this weapon

General info

Tell us about the tactical and technical characteristics of the cannon or machine gun.

Available ammunition

  • Default: HEFI-T
  • Universal: HEFI-T · HEFI-T · AP-T
  • Ground targets: AP-T · HEFI-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 ROF 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 large framed aircraft, 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 If the historical reference turns out to be too long, take it to a separate article, taking a link to the article about the weapon and adding a block "/ History" (example: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

An excellent addition to the article would be a video guide, as well as screenshots from the game and photos.
