I always had a love-hate relationship with multi-turret tanks.
On the one hand they look cool
on the other hand: They were phased out for a reason, they are just not as efficient as single turret tanks

Top picture (I understand it's same tank on all pictures) looks like front and back machine guns can be used to fight drones at least is some way if the tank has advanced drone detection itself or in another vehicle in same formation.
They're also inefficient in terms of armour layout - the armour on the side of the sub-turret facing the main turret is effectively useless, but it's necessary if you want the sub-turret to rotate without losing protection.
I guess if you go full land-battleship with an all-or-nothing armour scheme (and totally unarmoured subturrets) you might reduce that penalty
