Just imagine what this beast would be if we could get the Dhruv armed with the side-door gatling guns.

side door gattling guns???
i think the doors aren't wide enough i.e,if we fix the guns,then the door is blocked.no one can enter or exit.

an extended platform off the side is possible for attachment of a gatling

attachement of the gattling gun in not a problem,
but my point is that if we put a gattling gun in a door,that door is entirely blocked,preventing entry and exit

Ofc we can extend the chassis a bit without hampering any of its operational capabilities. After we developed that beast

All those who said Dhruv is a failed project should eat their words.
