I thought it was just 1 gun at a time, but you'd be able to select what kind of gun, AI/AV/AA. I could be wrong though

It might possibly have an alternate weapon... ie; a coax MG that you can swap between canon and MG

however i'm 99% sure the Lightning is a 1 man vehicle... no 2nd seat.\

and yah... there will be options to equip different types of canons (and possibly coax variants if there is a coax)

Agree. I feel fairly certain that the cannon's rounds double as flak rounds, but we'll see.

I don't think so. That is for the skyguard turret, the one we've seen is the viper turret.

I really hope that there will at least be a side grade to have that secondary infantry mower attached.

What we've seen in-game sofar is still a work in progress I think. As far as I know, on the model itself we've only seen the single "tank cannon" type gun which can shoot 6 shells very quickly before requiring reloading.

They have talked about other options such as the skyguard AA turret, and hopefully a turret that matches the PS1 lightning, but we haven't seen these two in game. I wouldn't be surprised if there's more turret options they add as well.

I'm personally hoping for the skyguard to look like this:
