i had the same problem on my infinity mod,all but 1 vehicle would show up. i think it depends on u can only have up to 4 of each vehicle on each team. If u mean that they dont show up in sparkedit wen u goto a menu and hit import tag in scenario, then u hav2 click one vehicle then on edit tab find the swap thing and select an available vehicle. then duplicate and u can switch the first back if u want. I'm not too new at this but I still am unsure of things so i hope this works, if not post a reply and il get an email. :D
I love Halo!!!!!!!!!!!
Bad Microsoft! They deleted the pic i used for my signicture pic!

Select a vehicle you KNOW always spawns, such as a warthog. Duplicate the warthog, and swap it with a tank, then move the tank where you want it.

yes i have done it. Make sure you select a warthog that normally spawns as well, and if it still doesn't work:

Select the meta of the tank in HMT, and swap it to the meta of a rockethog.

Alright tell me how it worked.

And tank shells from sky huh......

Active Scenery.

Take the meta from a grenade, paste it over a Health Pack, then pull the Health Pack up Into the Sky way high up in sparkedit, and duplicate a bunch of times, spread it all over if the grenades dont shoot down when you play rotate the health-packs so they do.

That'll work. Then adjust the respawn times for the health pack. (under powerups) until you get what you like.
