In the lower left corner, the lower line gives you heading and ground distance. However the given heading does not match with the heading tape. It seems one uses magnetic heading, and the other uses true heading. I dont know if this is as intended but i cant imagine pilots having to do the math here using the magnetic variance for the map, since caucasus is exactly the 6 degree difference shown in the pics.

Yeah, this is not correct behaviour. Both use the same magnetic variation set in the MAGV page.
