Make large structures visible from longer ranges

[Valis]

Massive objects like dams or bridges are popular targets and useful reference points, but their 3D models only resolve when very close. Is it possible to extend the view distance of these structures (of which there are relatively few) without having to extend the view distance of every other 'lesser' ground object as well?

Here, I'd also add added objects that are targets, such as vehicles, artillery, etc. Sometimes, at maximum zoom, you can't even see them until you're relatively close. However, all of this is for performance. If this were to come at the cost of performance, it's best not to touch them.

At least it faded in and back out again without just popping into existence.

The performance cost should be minimal because from that distance they should be visible but also have low polygon LOD.
