Many German Panther and Tiger tanks were destroyed because they could not turn their turrets fast enough to return fire which you mentioned in a previous post about the Vanguard. However we'll just have to see how it works during beta.
If they cap the turn speed of vanguard turrets then yes, prowlers would have an advantage if they could get in position, but I doubt they will. If the vanguard turret can move fast enough to keep up with a prowler, which I assume it will be able to, then prowlers will have no advantage at all unless the vanguard driver can't aim well.
