Looking at the Wikipedia and googling around a little bit, it seems that these are "new" with respect to the vehicles, but it is an old design. It seems(maybe?) that China was licensing the manufacture of them from Russia, so it's slightly ironic they're being sold back, but I don't know how common that is.
