It doesn't take a "rocket surgeon" to search and post some real facts instead of biased opinion. Since you can't produce any, "your honor, I rest my case".
Lol, whatever dude. Try to get out more, there's a whole world outside of the Internet.

Funny I would drive the A-10 HUD to the EMI test facility every day strapped into the passenger seat in my '80 Caprice for a month or two. It was secured with the seat belt and was so tall it cut the headliner going over bumps. There was two occasions when a guy in the oncoming traffic recognized the green combiner glass and make a huge expression wondering what that was doing in a rusted '80 Chevy.
I once had to pick up some inert Hellfires in a rental F150 at a freight facility in Tucson and drive them to a range in BFE AZ. I had to go through a Border Patrol checkpoint to get to the airstrip that we were operating out of. Amazing and somewhat concerning that they didn't ask any questions about the dude in a rental truck with four boxes marked as Missiles hanging out the bed.
