The 75 SA 49 (French: 75 mm Semi-Automatique Modèle 1949; 75 mm Semi-Automatic 1949 Model) is a French 75 mm low-recoil rifled gun specially designed to be mounted on the EBR eight-wheeled armored reconnaissance vehicle.
The gun's short recoil operating system causes the barrel to reciprocate, similar to the M2 machine gun. This combined with a gas system to minimize recoil balances positive and negative recoil forces, allowing a gunner to fire a round with significantly greater energy but with the recoil profile similar to a 7.62 mm round from an M240.

[1] An unusual feature among modern machine guns is the fact the Ultimax was purposely designed to feed from magazines as opposed to belts.
