SA50 L/57 (75mm) Is one of the best cannons in the game. The gun on most of the tanks has an autoloader (except [[M4A4 (SA50)]] ) Which is very useful considering it's on fast light tank and you can get in bad situation very quickly. Gun has one of the best penetration on it's tiers, except [[AMX-13 (HOT)]] which is on 8.3 where you can't penatrate most of the tank up front with the gun.

The 75 mm SA50 L/57 is a powerful gun. It is equipped with an autoloader (except on the [[M4A4 (SA50)]]), which gives it a competitive reload time. The combat vehicles equipped with this weapon have a high penetrating power for their battle rating, with the exception of the [[AMX-13 (HOT)]], which gets a comparatively high BR due to being equipped with second-generation ATGMs.

The SA50 L/57 has similar ballistic characteristics to the [[KwK42 (75 mm)|75 mm KwK42]] upon which its development was based. However, both penetration performance and damage effect are not identical, as other types of ammunition are used.

Thanks to the high penetrating power of the gun, vehicles equipped with this weapon can attack all but the most resilient enemies head-on. The short reload time can be used to compensate for the low damage effect of the AP grenades through fast follow-up shots to take out targets quickly. As with all tanks equipped with an autoloader, however, it takes a long time to reload after it has been depleted, so it is highly recommended to remove the tank from the direct line of sight of the enemy during longer firefights in order to refill magazines.

The 75 mm SA50 was developed to fulfil a requirement for a 75 mm anti-tank gun to be mounted on the [[ARL-44]]. Although it was never adopted for this role, it was later standardized and mounted on the [[AMX-13]], among other designs. The development team sought a cannon that possessed comparable performance to the German [[KwK42 (75 mm)|75 mm KwK42]], mounted on the [[Panzer V Panther (Family)|Panther]], notably.

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. Make an air or ground vehicles list on which this weapon is installed in our game.

Vehicles equipped with this weapon

General info

SA50 L/57 (75mm) Is one of the best cannons in the game. The gun on most of the tanks has an autoloader (except M4A4 (SA50) ) Which is very useful considering it's on fast light tank and you can get in bad situation very quickly. Gun has one of the best penetration on it's tiers, except AMX-13 (HOT) which is on 8.3 where you can't penatrate most of the tank up front with the gun.

Available shells

Describe the shells that are available for the cannon and their features and purpose. If it concerns autocannons or machine guns, write about different ammo belts and what is inside (which types of shells).

Comparison with analogues

Give a comparative description of cannons/machine guns, that have firepower equal to these type of weapons.

Usage in battles

In battle you have great advantage of the autoloader which you will use too much. Watch you for your ammo! Autoloader has 12 pcs ammo of 5 second reload.

Pros and cons

Pros:

Average/decent penetration

Autoloader (except M4A4 (SA50))

Average velocity

Short reload (except M4A4 (SA50))

Cons:

None APHE type shell

Long reload (Only M4A4 (SA50))

75mm caliber

Small penatration on higher tiers

Bad evalation angels

History

Examine the history of the creation and combat usage of this weapon. If the historical reference turns out to be too big, take it to a separate article, taking a link to an article about the vehicle and adding a block "/ History" (example: https://wiki.warthunder.com/(weapon-name)/History) and add a link to it here using the main template.
