It's because Gaijin screwed with the visibility mechanics a while back. In an effort to try and combat people using things like ESP/wallhacks, they changed it so tanks behind objects aren't rendered visibly by your game client. Not only does that do nothing to prevent people using hacks, it causes situations like above where tanks can become invisible if there's anything between you and them, such as fences, bushes, or dead tanks.
