ASP-5 Bomb mil deflection setting

Recommended Posts

I am puzzled with the "ASP-5 Bomb mil deflection setting".  According to the label that appears when your mouse cursor hover on it, the unit of measurement is the mil.

1 ° = 17.778 mil

1 mil = 0.056250 °

 

 

But, in the manual (p. 132), it says:

4.  In dependence of the pre-established altitude and dive angle, select lead angle from the Sight Lead Angle Selector based on the dive bombing chart (see below at the end of the bomb employment instructions). The lead angles are limited to values between 0 to 12 degrees.  

 

The scale on the ASP-5 Bomb mil deflection setting goes from 0 to 12.

 

So can it be confirmed the scale is not in mils but in degrees and the text should read "ASP-5 Bomb mil degree deflection setting"? Or am I missing sthing here?
