Thermal imaging resolution is restricted by arm control laws unfortunately. There are forces at work beyond market forces.

ITAR compliance assurance isn't free and certainly impacts operational costs, but the sensor I have isn't export controlled and still normally costs >$1K when you buy it from FLIR.

That's only for the US though, and I'd expect such a product to come from Asia.
