I don't know about invisible killers, but I have died in some odd ways recently. A few hours ago, I attacked a BTD head on in my Tempest. I didn't down the hostile aircraft and I took some damage, but I carefully avoided a ramming and continued flying. However, a few seconds later, my plane rolled over, the engine started smoking, and my wingtip fell off.

sound like connection issues.

In a tank or in a plane? In a tank I will just pop over a hill take a shot then duck back as soon as i fire even before it hits. Depending on the game type you wont even even have a chance to see me . Now does this make my hit rate go down.. yeah unfortunately but my survivability has gone way up

having the same in tank battles. no enemy impact on my tank (not even on replay) and my gunner is knocked out while just standing there and shooting enemies...

There are tanks that have high profiles, and there are tanks that havent. Not to mention the difference in gun depression between each tank. You cant see the enemy, doesnt mean that they cant see you. And in the most case, you get shot b/c they shoot at the very top of your turret.

Nah u can still use movie setting without turning on the grass. It is a feature, not a bug.

Yeah, you better disable those bushes and grass, its allowed
It doesn't influence the visuals that much anyway, you'll get used to it fast enough

As for the issue voiced in this thread.. I agree with Razberrie, it's totally a connection issue

I don't experience anything mentioned here
Although there was couple of times when tanks warped. But that's, like, literally couple of times in a ♥♥♥♥-load of gaming sessions

Oh, and just remembered: there was also a time when I looked straight at the opponent's tank but didn't see the enemy tank shooting and didnt hear the sound of impact, but my tank got damaged.
Maybe this is how your sneaky opponents got you. You just have this problem much more often, guess your connection with the War Thunder server is not that great. Or you have an option ticked in your settings to connect you with some other distant servers except your "home" server
