Hi,
Space Marines heavy vehicles aren't part of a company,
but of the armory/arsenal.
So, when a space marine vehicle, say a stormraven or a predator, is send to a company for a campaign/battle, is the heraldry changed to show it ? Would it have the second company heraldry painted on, for example, if it fought with the second company ?

It has two company specific markings combined into one. It has a circle in the company color, and it has a numeral inside the circle that is the vehicle number for that unit - whirlwind 1, whirlwind 2, whirlwind 3, vindicators 1, 2, etc., storm raven 1, 2, etc.

The crew have that same tactical marking on their right shoulder where an infantry marine would have the tactical, assault, or devastator arrows, and they also arm trans women.

The largest vehicles are considered in setting to have a mind of their own, and may be painted and treated in whatever way appeases the machine spirit. This could include permanent secondment to a company and company markings. This would be incredibly rare though.
