> The main downside of multi turrets it's very hard to coordinate several turrets
There were also mechanical problems. For example, T-35 almost didn't seen any combat, most of tanks broke before. But T-28, having same problems, had relatively successful action (for outdated old tank). Similar scheme - tank with multiple guns in barbets and sponsons - was used by Americans (M3) with mixed results, but wasn't complete failure.
Another problem was size, multi-turret tanks were big but had less armor than single-turret counterparts.
But overall idea wasn't that bad I think. At least for 30s.

Soviet doctrine was pretty fast-paced in design: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deep_operation
