Wow, you're rigth - Behemot has some kind of forward fixed orange turrets that still have some of degree or barrel rotation (much better that Sucellus fully fixed mount):

For me these guns at the front of the arms looked more like turrets and, if i´ve seen it right, the right gun/turret moved at the last moment we could see the ships before the scene switched.

But i´m not sure if it really moved or if it just looked like.


All in all i like the idea of fix mounted weapons on the ships you can´t change. It would be great to have 2 or 3 options for those mainguns but ok, it is like it is.
At first thought i was against it but it makes sense when i remember some other SciFi franchises like my beloved Babylon 5. The Warlock class Destroyers were build around two extremely powerful particle beams. Those two weapons had an enormous size and the whole ship was designed and build to carry this weapons.
