It's possible to disable vehicle sensors using enableVehicleSensor. These are the different sensors that show up in the sensor panel and allow vehicles to automatically spot targets.

I think it could be a good idea to add an F3 component that lets you more easily disable these sensors to suit a mission. This would probably be integrated into the disable thermals component, as they're basically operating on the same things. The most basic version of this would be to disable thermal/night vision sensors based on whether those are disabled in general (most vehicles should also have a visual sensor that does a similar thing but is affected more by light/smoke/visibility). There could also be additional settings to disable other sensors, such as radar or infantry sensors on drones.

This would likely involve some config scripting to get a list of what sensors are on a vehicle. Config scripting is fun!

There should be no need for config scripting since we have this: https://community.bistudio.com/wiki/listVehicleSensors

This would be a nice component but might not be worth the effort.
