I believe it’s because it has a IRST and it allows it to measure range.
But that’s a over simplified answer, could be wrong.

It’s used to measure distance and other things, my assumption, as I don’t have much knowledge on this area, is part of the computer to acquire the target, in-game, is a ‘feature’ which isn’t a feature but a effect (laser rangefinder) of this cause (ballistic computer), which yes, it’s fair that Gaijin could just remove it, but it isn’t a problem at all.
At one point, the Army started to become concerned about developments in sensor technologies that would allow attacks by fixed-wing aircraft at night or in bad weather. They developed a requirement for a weapon system able to operate using FLIR and a laser rangefinder in order to counter these threats. However, the rest of the military establishment pooh-poohed the idea; even the USAF carried out only limited operations in bad weather, and the Soviets had a considerably less capable force in this regard. The idea gained little traction and died.
