Vehicles should be first person view only
Maybe a hot take but if soldiers can't have it then vehicles shouldn't either. It would raise the skill ceiling on all vehicles and bring more immersion. Tanks, helicopters, etc shouldn't be able to ...

I usually only use the first person view myself (personal preference is all) but I do occasionally pop into 3rd person to see if a Sundance is about to fly in on me or something else is creeping around so I do understand why others would like it.
Armor in this title have arguably more threats than any other time in Battlefield's history, they're paper tigers really. Trying to push a point opens you up to all manner of rockets, C5, grenades (which weirdly do 20 damage just like a rocket)
You're better off (if you want your tank to last more than a few minutes) staying on the peripheral of the points or as a lot of tankers seem to be doing lately "camping" with it and basically using it like artillery.
EA/Dice have inadvertently placed armor in the position that these are the most viable ways to score kills and survive, it's not my particular play style but I understand why it has evolved this way.
Yet Dice keeps on nerfing vehicles due to moaning players.
3rd person view in vehicles in BF4 and BF1 was far to much of an advantage given the accuracy of 3rd person crosshairs.
I accept that 3rd person view is often essential when driving around some areas of some maps and I'm fine with that but 3rd person view firing should not be so good that it becomes almost the default view for everyone in all circumstances.
There needs to be a 'downside' to it given the advantages gained.

Well you're in luck with 2042 because 3rd person aiming in the tank is completely broken!!!
- @SithMetal71 Infantry anti-vehicle weapons are peashooters. But if they were realistic, no vehicle would survive for long.
Therefore, when vehicles are too overpowered it becomes a joke to play as infantry.
But of course, Dice could make anti-tank rockets destroy tanks like in real life?
