Two independently rotational turrets - why not?
>>
>>33347012
Too tall
>>
>>33347012
Do you know how much one weighs?
>>
Sure, the same IED can now take out targets worth 4x-5x as much.
>>
Why, so it can shoot two different things at once? Just use two separate tanks
>>
power, weight, structural integrity, crew complement

Why not have one turret with two barrels side by side style. This seems like a feasible idea but what the fuck do I know

Why not 6?

Too small.

Six barrels, two tiers, like a hokum. Autoloading, of course.

High rotation, alternating fire.
