To the best of my memory this is already being done, albeit I am not sure whether it is for the T-90 or T-72 modernization or some other program altogether. The problem is that Russia does not have a sufficient production capacity of thermal cameras to satisfy the demand: they are necessary for all of kinds of systems, from ATGM firing posts to tanks and helicopters. Therefore an additional supply source is necessary.
