I know that the V mount weighs slightly less than the X mount, making it an option I almost always pick. However, a good trade off would be for it to take away AA positions. This would happen because the deck space in front of the turret cannot be used, as the power of the gun firing would kill the gun crews. There is far more deck space in front of the V mount than the X mount.

There is far more deck space in front of the V mount than the X mount. On the one hand, I'd be okay with V turret having some disadvantage over X turret beyond incompatibility with cross-deck fire. On the other hand, look at where some of the AA positions on, say, Iowa ended up: I can't honestly say that I think V turret would be a serious disadvantage for mounting AA guns when, historically, you have AA guns mounted more or less under the barrels of the main battery guns, though admittedly in history air attacks and surface actions tended to be more clearly separated than is often the case in the game.

Yeah, probably should've done some research. In just 5 minutes of googling I found this:
