Description
The Canon de 75 Modèle 1897 (often simply called the 75, in french: Soixante-Quinze), is widely regarded as the first modern artillery piece, largely due to its groundbreaking hydropneumatic recoil system, which allowed it to achieve an unparalleled rate of fire and accuracy. Originally designed as an anti-personnel weapon, it saw its first combat use in 1900 in China and faced its first challenges during the trench warfare of the Great War, when its flat trajectory made it struggle against entrenched infantry. However, newer shrapnel and gas shells gave it a second life. Its widely praised capabilities led to the gun being adopted by the French Navy, primarily in an anti-aircraft role, thanks to specialised naval mounts with enhanced elevation and rotation. The gun remained in use through World War II, serving in anti-aircraft and tank roles, with some guns still in use today as saluting guns.
The 75 mm/35 model 1897 was introduced in Update "Dance of Dragons" as a secondary gun for Arras, featuring a wide choice of ammunition, including an excellent SAP shell, and a fairly standard rate of fire for its calibre.

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

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
Summarise and briefly evaluate the weaponry in terms of its characteristics and combat effectiveness. Mark pros and cons as a list.
Pros:
Cons:
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 If the historical reference turns out to be too long, take it to a separate article, taking a link to the article about the weapon and adding a block "/History" (example: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.
