=== Vehicles equipped with this weapon ===


* {{Specs-Link|it_battleship_andrea_doria}}

== General info ==
''Tell us about the tactical and technical characteristics of the cannon or machine gun.''

=== Available ammunition ===
''Describe the shells that are available for the weapon 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 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.''

== 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 If the historical reference turns out to be too long, take it to a separate article, taking a link to the article about the weapon and adding a block "/History" (example: <nowiki>https://wiki.warthunder.com/(Weapon-name)/History</nowiki>) and add a link to it here using the <code>main</code> template. Be sure to reference text and sources by using <code><nowiki><ref></ref></nowiki></code>, as well as adding them at the end of the article with <code><nowiki><references /></nowiki></code>.''

 == History ==
-The Schneider mod.1911 is an Italian-licensed version of a French artillery piece. Built by Gio Ansaldo the gun served in a large number of roles during World War I. In the Regio Esercito (Royal Italian Army) it was used as a railway gun and designated the Cannone da 76/45 S 1911. The Regio Marina (Royal Italian Navy) designated the gun 76/45 S Mod 1911 RM and mounted it on their warships such as the [[RN Andrea Doria|''RN Andrea Doria'']]. Also during World War I, Ansaldo built 312 guns and 287 mounts to convert the Schneider cannon into an anti-aircraft weapon. Used by the Regio Marina, this variant was designated Cannone da 76/45 CA and used on high-angle at important locations or on armored trains to protect them from air attack.

-The Schneider 1911 would continue to see service after the war. As the Italians were never able to produce sufficient numbers of their newer Cannone de 75/46 and [[90/53 mod.41 (90 mm)|Cannone de 90/53]] anti-aircraft guns, the 242 guns still in service along with a number of other WWI-era designs were put into service as coastal defense and AA guns for the Blackshirts. In the air defense role, it was used to defend major cities, factories, or bases in fixed batteries of four guns. Optical coincidence rangefinders and height finders were used to transmit information to a single fire control station which found the speed, altitude, and range of the targets and transmitted the deflection angles to the gun crews. These batteries were also aided by searchlights and acoustic location devices.
