looks like it has more guns than it can effectively use without killing anything in the general direction that it's pointing
although i think that would be considered effective in itself if that were the case : )

I've seen this tank destroyer in a book about the war in Vietnam. Was it effective against Viet Cong vehicles ?

It was widely used throughout Vietnam so I would guess yes.
