This is how to place a tank in the editor and it will appear tiny in-game.
 
 

Placing the item.

Place a tank in the editor and put this code in the init.
 
 

if (isServer) then { 
 private _simpleObject = this call BIS_fnc_replaceWithSimpleObject;
 _simpleObject setObjectScale 0.1;
 _simpleobject setposatl [11578,17769.3,0];
};

 
 
Then right-click the tank and copy the location to the clipboard. Then replace the setPosATL value with the location of the tank. Then you will have a nice little decorative tank. I have tested this on a dedicated server and it works perfectly. As you can see in the screenshots, this also works for buildings. Even modded ones like Jbad.
 
 

 
 

 
 

 
 
This is fun to try out.
