They can’t pivot.
They can torso twist and they can turn fast enough. Most foes can’t survive their fire long enough to force a situation where a Warhawk would have to pivot, and those that can are mostly too slow to force same. As an Omnimech, the Warhawk can also carry battle armor infantry, who are more than capable of stopping any close assaults.
