An M1 Abrams main battle tank has better visibility of children in front of it than the F-series and similar pointless toys.
I'm curious if this is factual. Would make for a hell of an anti-marketing campaign.
I saw diagrams labeled with heights and viewing angles that was pretty convincing. It showed that an M1 would spot the kid from further out than an f150 would.
Edit: F250 and similar, but maybe not the actual F150 per the image below. If you search some combo of f150 m1 viewing distance I'm sure you'll find it.
