I noticed this a while ago but thought it was intentional because if you look at the front of the tank, there is this purple viewport thing and I figured it was a camera thing that supported thermals as well as the 'commander' (driver alt) view on top.

Maybe it is a bug?

I don't know if it's a bug or not. If you stayed in the driver seat and hold T, you can switch back and forth...(not possible in other tanks in PR)

which vehicles get thermal where was very carefully chosen, I think the driver of the abrams gets thermals in both positions intentionally.

Its not a bug, its a feature. There are thermal imaging panels available for the periscopes on the Stryker, Bradley and Abrams IRL.

Source: Ask Jaymz, he has it.
