Leopard 2 barrel elevation mess

Hi there,
I was enjoying my first Leo 2 ride while i experienced this problem:

Description:
When you get into leopard 2, into gunner position, look behind the vehicle, and then look down, you should know what im talking about. The barrel goes trough the rear of the tank. Its rather a minor issue, but i didnt test out what happens when i pull the trigger while having barrel stick in my tanks arse :) .

Steps to Reproduce:
1) Load any German map (tested on Silent Eagle)
2) Get into Leopard 2
3) Take gunners seat.
4) aim on 6hrs ad move the barrel as low as possible

You should be able to see the barrel stick trough the body of tank.

Tested On:
Silent Eagle AAS-64, PR v0.957

known issue, its the same on the CR2, M1A2 etc... The problem is we can't limit the how much you can look down backwards, without also limiting how far you can look down when looking forwards with the BF2 engine, even thou it is in r/l.

We feel that being able to look down to the tanks realistic levels on the front side is more important than the turret going though the back of the tank when looking backwards and as such, its not going to change.
