Smoke from TOW emplacement blocking view

I've noticed that after you fire a missile from a TOW emplacement the smoke from the missile will obscure your view for several seconds and can cause you to miss a target. I don't know if this is intentional or not but it seems like the missile is being launched right in front of the scope so that the smoke trail immediately obscures the view instead of where the missiles are actually fired from, down and to the right of most launchers.

Unsure if this can be fixed or not but it's incredibly annoying and has caused me to miss a couple important shots.

Gonna lock this, use the above thread if you want to add anything else :)
