While yes it is true that if something can't be seen fully it is obscured, "Obscured" is a vehicle specific rule stating that if said vehicle is blocked from sight by 50% or more from the firer it gets a cover save.

Except, as I just pointed, it's not.
'Obscured' is a general term for something that is partially hidden from sight. The 'Behicles and Cover - Obscured Targets' rule requires 50% of the vehicle to be covered in order for it to count as obscured... but 'Obscured' is not a term specific to vehicles in the rules. Have a look at the first line of the 'When are models in cover?' section on page 21.
