Do you happen to know the muzzle velocity? It is crucial for the new guidelines for tank attack values: http://aaminis.myfastforum.org/about5724.html

For the 37mm SA 18 [R-35 and H-35] -> V°=600 m/s

For the 37mm SA 38 [R-40 and H-39] -> V°=705 m/s

Nota: The SA 38 has a rate of fire of 30 cps/min. Does it have any effect on the game? ("saturation" of the enemy?)
