I say superior to Russian tank lower than T-14 because firepower is also a function of sensors, computers, and gun stabilisation. T-90M is excellent, possibly better than 99A on these though ... who knows. ZPT-98 does make use of some fairly expensive steel refining techniques which I really doubt older and inexpensive T-series use. It's also longer calibre than 2A46M... has different thermo shroud than 96A's gun (and 2A46 series) and muzzle reference (which T-90M admittedly has as well).
Oh how the times change

Well they have sensors albeit not even Russian most of the time (french thermals)

From what I could find 99A do in fact actually have worse thermal sights than T-90M. Pretty sure 99As have not been upgraded with the latest 3rd generation thermal imagers which is standard on basically everything the PLAGF produces now while T-90M atleast the ones built recently has 3rd generation thermal imagers.
