Please if trees are in our way when aiming in tanks, let us blow them up and cut them down, yes some are already destroyable, others you seem to fire straight through…

trees are super hard and should block all projectiles.
They were even used as armor in tanks

Tree’s, sand bags, and other additive armor, had very little practical effect against Kinetic projectiles, HEAT round on the other hand were often foiled or diminished in there effect by them.
They had more of a psychological / placebo effect on the crews morale
Various sources cover this.
Simply put Wood should really not have any effect on high velocity large caliber rounds, there are numerous references to tank round going through buildings and killing tanks on the other side of them for instances, wood buildings

This happens because your view port isn’t 100% lined up with your cannon

Yes, but if you are in a tank and strategically position yourself ie. Jumbo next to a tree or lamposts, you will not get penned in weakspot…
You can already shoot down trees: just aim for the base of the tree with HE and it will come down.
I will have to try this again, have you done this on Berlin?
I haven’t specifically tried it in Berlin, but I think it should work anywhere you can make a crater with your gun; the crater seems to be what brings the trees down

Didn’t work on Berlin, trees made tank sight jump to side, this is quite frustrating…
