With its canonical geometry (or something closer to it), it would be essentially "a slightly-lighter Clan King Crab" - relatively flat/disc-shaped from the front/rear & sides but very broad when seen from the top, and with the arms (and thus, the bulk of the available energy & ballistic weapons for most configs) being much closer to cockpit-level (but much more wide-set) than would be the case with the Daishi.
At 3052, the Turkina would have the Prime (energy/ballistic arms, missile side-torsos), A (ballistic arms, missile side-torsos), B (energy arms, energy side-torsos, energy CT, energy head), and C (ballistic LA, energy RA, energy LT, energy/ballistic/missile RT) configs available.
The KGC seems to do fairly well for itself, so why wouldn't the Turkina find a similar niche on the Clan side?
It would be a very, very small niche, as the Dire Wolf with S pods affords the same movement profile as the Turkina would have, the Dire Turkey is honestly a 5t lighter Dire Wolf in terms of agility due to it packing the same engine to walk speed ratio as the Dire Wolf, in this case a 285xl, sorry for my math error before calling for a 295xl. The Dire Wolf is often seen as an easy target due to the limited agility it has thanks to the locked 300 series engine, I fail to see how the Turkina will fair any better in that regard.
