Let me join others in disagreeing with you... I don't think this sounds too repititious, so here goes.
You seem to think that the medium on foot would be more effective against infantry than a medium in a tank gunner position.
I think you're very wrong.
NC: The dual 20mm cannon should be quite effective as an anti-infantry weapon. Lots of dead people. And depending on how fast you can switch back and forth between the weapons, it may be an effective tactic to switch between the main gun and the cannons while the main gun is reloading. BOOM-tatatatata-BOOM-tatatatat.
TR: While there are two gunner positions (right?), the heavier cannons will have a relatively high rate of fire. Lot's of dead people. And the dual chainguns look like they'll just WRECK people. Messy messy messy.
VS: Not sure about this one... it's rate of fire and AOE will probably be somewhere between the two other tanks... but it's a tough call... not enough info.
I still think a heavy tank gunner will be far more effective than anyone on foot in an anti-infantry role... with the possible exception of an anti-infantry MAX (and I wouldn't count on that either).

Oops... I originally had my second paragraph reading "tang gunner". I can see it now... The deadly tang gunners, spewing orange powder over all who oppose them!
