The Nudelman-Suranov NS-37 (Russian: Нудельман – Суранов НС-37) was a 37 mm (1.5 in) aircraft cannon which replaced the unreliable Shpitalny Sh-37 gun. Large caliber was planned to allow destruction of both ground targets (including armoured ones) and planes (ability to shoot down a bomber with a single hit). Developed by A. E. Nudelman and A. Suranov from OKB-16 Construction Bureau from 1941 it was tested at the front in 1943 and subsequently ordered into production which lasted until 1945.
