In my Tiger which has an airsoft gun the camera will be mounted inside the mantlet viewing out through the gunners twin sights. Should give a realistic view of what they saw back in the day. My Pershing with the camera mounted on top of the barrel and mantlet offers a view similar to yours, its disguised in a searchlight and is IR capable. Don't have it hooked up to a recording device yet, didn't know they made those composite to usb cables.
