I have a problem with that... it's nothing more or less like a super-radar that will tell you enemy presence for all purposes, not just landing your GV. That would help you to know about enemy GVs long before they can be seen or even heard. It makes ambushing enemy attackers quite difficult "Wait - there is someone near the town, my light on the dash just went on - There must be someone near town, don't move the m3 forward yet"

But it could be anything like a plane flying high over head or something. This would only be a big problem in the early hours with less people. And lets face it, it's just basically milk-runners and a couple of fights.
No one knows what the future may bring.

also, im going to add to this, but one day i spawned into a base in my t34-85 and reaked havok on that base, and got 20 kills(of tigers, panzers, m4s and other t34's), but the base i spawned from was captured 30secs before i landed back at the spawn. now there was nothing out there because i had air cover and they didnt see anything and i had killed all the gvs that had chased me. but when i "landed", i got a ditch. and to top it off i still ended up loosing perk points (which is BS!).

You have not killed any tigers as yet this tour.

 Yes good suggestion! Tired of losing kills by guessing how far the enemy is from me.
