This command returns a lot of crap that is not really a vehicle in a common sense - simulated weapon holders, clutter cutters, etc. It also skips "out" vehicles (disassembled drones and statics). Be careful iterating through it as it may be expensive. Here is a list of most vehicle simulations that are returned by this command:

airplanex artillerymarker car carx fire helicopterrtd lasertarget motorcycle nvmarker parachute paraglide rope shipx submarinex suppresstarget tankx thing thingx

Generated using this code bit:

private _sims = createHashMap; { private _sim = toLowerANSI getText(_x >> "simulation"); if!(_sim in _sims) then { _sims set [_sim, configName _x]; }; } forEachReversed ("getNumber(_x >> 'scope') > 0" configClasses (configFile >> "CfgVehicles")); private _used_sims = []; { if(createVehicle [_y, [random 1e5,random 1e5,random 1e5], [], 0, "CAN_COLLIDE"] in vehicles) then { _used_sims pushBack _x; }; } forEach _sims; _used_sims sort true; copyToClipboard (_used_sims joinString toString [10]);

There is probably more simulations not listed like non-x versions of vehicle simulations but these are ones actually used in A3.
