Absolutely. Consider that in a platoon sized action that kind of vehicle (but also all the artillery and anything above a light mortar really) should be operating, given the scale of the table, from two rooms away approximately if not more.
As I said, the rules are severly flawed in this respect if you want them to represent what happened during WWII.
But my point is that they have not been conceived for this at all, they aim at a certain type of gamer which is not really interested in this but wants a competitive game where half the game is in the list building exercise (a luxury no commander ever had throughout all history) and, in this case, using WWII models rather than scifi or fantasy. The game itself is not made to give the actual feeling of WWII, you could use moodels from a totally different era, once you hae costed them in points, and the game would not be really any different.
