The torchlight effect, yes. And even without that - even if you cannot ID at maximum distance, a thermal still tells you there is something out there at - how great a distance? 2000 meters? 2500, maybe even 3000 ? An infrared tells you there is something at 300, 400, 500 meters or so.
Guess who marks the first hit!
I have so far not tried the T-72 in SBP, just did so yesterday night after that video, to see how the sim models infrared sightings. You feel blind, naked, exposed and defenceless, I tell you that. Infrared sights are very nicely visualised indeed.
Will not try the T-72 again.
