1. A Vehicle as LVT4 on an Ocean hex that is Shaken and receives other Shaken, should be abandoned. As the LVT4 cannot be abandoned on this type of hexes, I assume it is Destroyed (Passengers and Crew dead) but with no Wreck, as it sinks. Am I right?

2. Stupid doubt. Does the ability of LVT4 of not reducing its MF on Ocean/Surf apply also to Ponds?

1- Seems right to me but will let Jeff confirm this
2- Where is this ability listed ?

There is no reason it should be different. That being said, this is a theorical question, as the biggest pond is two hexes across

On second thoughts, I'm not so sure, it seems strange to me that small arms could sink a LVT4. Maybe the second shaken result has no effect in this case ? Let see what Jeff has to say about that.

13.2.4: Crews don't abandon LVT4s in Ocean hexes. . . . Shaken LVT4 can continue to move toward the Beach, but cannot fire.

So, they just remain Shaken. They do abandon in Surf hexes, and Beach.

No Wrecks for Destroyed LVT4 b/c they sink.

As for the Pond thing, the movement is the same: Look on TEC.
