Any ideas? Laser designator? Rangefinder? Stabilised vision system? It's obvious who it is but what it isn't, nor what it is mounted on.
 
Looks like some kind of ITAS for a wire-guided missile.
 
I wonder what it's mounted on, too. At first I thought some kind of infiltration/fast attack craft, which would be plausible given the camo, but now I'm not so sure. See the the photo to understand why. It looks kind of like some sort of armored vehicle, similar in roof configuration to the MBRL armed M-1992 BRDM, but without cabin windows and stuff... So, boat, new armored vehicle, or what?

The text seems to speak about a modification of the Chinese Type 99 tank
with an "active defense system" .... if I understand the automatic translation
correctly.
 
I think they are referring to a similarity with the Chinese tank's defensive suite. Personally, I think it's more like an optronics package, with day/night cameras and laser rangefinder.
