| ==History==
| |
| The milliradian (circle/6283.185…) was first invented in the mid nineteenth Century by Charles-Marc Dapples (1837–1920), an engineer and professor at the [[University of Lausanne]].<ref>{{cite book | title=Dictionnaire historique de la Suisse | publisher=Fonds, AV Laussane | author=Renaud, Hugues | date=2002-05-31 | url=http://www.hls-dhs-dss.ch/textes/f/F23879.php | quote=Dapples: ... Charles-Marc (1837-1920), ingénieur, professeur à l'université de Lausanne, municipal à Lausanne, est l'inventeur de l'unité appelée "millième" pour mesurer les angles dans le tir d'artillerie. Une branche de la famille s'est fixée à Gênes à la fin du XVIIIe s.}}</ref> Degrees and minutes were the usual units of angular measurement but others were being proposed, with “[[Grad (angle)|grads]]” (circle/400) under various names having considerable popularity in much of northern Europe. However, Imperial Russia used a different approach, dividing a circle into equilateral triangles (60°, circle/6) and hence 600 units to a circle.
| |
| | |
| Around the time of the start of [[World War I]], France was experimenting with the use of milliemes (circle/6400) for use with artillery sights instead of decigrades (circle/4000). The United Kingdom was also trialing them to replace degrees and minutes. They were adopted by France although decigrades also remained in use throughout World War I. Other nations also used decigrades. The United States, which copied many French artillery practices, adopted mils (circle/6400). After the [[Bolshevik Revolution]] and the adoption of the metric system of measurement (e.g. artillery replaced “units of base” with meters) the Red Army expanded the 600 unit circle into a 6000 mil one. Hence the Russian mil has nothing to do with milliradians as its origin.
| |
| | |
| In the 1950s, [[NATO]] adopted metric units of measurement for land and general use. Mils, meters, and kilograms became standard, although degrees remained in use for naval and air purposes, reflecting civil practices.
| |
| | |
| ==Mathematical principle==
| |
| Use of the Mil-dot system is possible because it is concerned with [[Skinny triangle|small angles]], and at small angles:
| |
| | |
| :<math>\sin \theta \simeq \theta</math>
| |
| | |
| This allows a user to dispense with [[trigonometry]] and use simple ratios to determine size and distance with acceptable accuracy for rifle and short distance artillery calculations.
| |
| | |
| Since a [[radian]] is mathematically defined as the angle formed when the length of a circular arc equals the radius of the circle, a trigonometric [[Radian#Multiples of radian units|milliradian]] (mrad), is the angle formed when the length of a circular arc equals 1/1000 of the radius of the circle. Since the radian expresses a ratio, it is independent of the units of length used.
| |
| | |
| ==Use==
| |
| [[Image:mil estimation.jpg|thumb|200px|Estimating mils with hands|right]]
| |
| | |
| The angular mil is commonly used by military organizations. Its relationship to the trigonometric radian gives rise to the handy property of subtension: ''One mil approximately subtends one metre at a distance of one thousand metres''. More formally the [[small angle approximation]] for [[skinny triangle]]s shows that the angle in radians approximates to the [[sine]] of the angle.
| |
| | |
| Angle can be used for both calculating size or range. Where the range is known the angle will give the size, where the size is known then the range is given.
| |
| | |
| When out in the field angle can be measured by using calibrated optics or quite approximately ones fingers and hands. With an outstretched arm one finger is approximately 30 mils wide, a fist 150 mils and a spread hand 300 mils.
| |
| | |
| Angle can be used for calculating range. For objects of known size the range is the size divided by the angle. [[Land Rover Series|Land Rovers]] are about 3 to 4 m long, "smaller tank" or [[Armoured personnel carrier|APC]]/[[Infantry fighting vehicle|MICV]] at ~6 m (e.g. [[T-34]] or [[BMP-3|BMP]]) and ~10 m for a "big tank." From the front a Land Rover is about 1.5 m, most tanks around 3 - 3.5 m. So a SWB Land Rover from the side are one finger wide at ~100 m. A modern tank would have to be at a bit over 300 m.
| |
| | |
| Artillery spotters typically use their calibrated binoculars to walk fire onto a target. Here they know the approximate range to the target and so can read off the angle (+ quick calculation) to give the left/right corrections in metres.
| |
| | |
| ''Note: Do not confuse the angular mil with the [[minute of arc]] (MOA).''<br>
| |
| '''1 trigonometric milliradian (mrad) ≈ 3.43774677078493 MOA'''. '''1 NATO mil = 3.375 MOA (exactly)'''.
| |
| | |
| ==Markings on gunsights==
| |
| | |
| ===Artillery sights===
| |
| Artillery uses angular measurement in gun laying, the azimuth between the gun and its target many kilometres away and the elevation angle of the barrel. This means that artillery uses mils to graduate indirect fire azimuth sights (called ''dial sights'' or ''panoramic telescopes''), their associated instruments (''directors'' or ''aiming circles''), their elevation sights ([[clinometer]]s or [[quadrant (instrument)|quadrant]]s), together with their manual plotting devices, firing tables and fire control computers.
| |
| | |
| ===Telescopic sights===
| |
| [[File:Findot reticle 2.png|thumb|right|"FinDot" [[reticle]] as used by [[Finnish Defence Forces]] snipers (a regular Mil-dot reticle with the addition of 400 m – 1200 m holdover [[stadiametric rangefinding|(stadiametric) rangefinding]] brackets for 1 meter high or 0.5 meter wide targets at 400, 600, 800, 1000 and 1200 m).]]
| |
| [[File:USMC-19556.jpg|thumbnail|right|Mildot chart as used by snipers]]
| |
| | |
| Many [[telescopic sight]]s used on [[rifles]] have [[reticle]]s that are marked in angular mils, and these are generally called '''Mil-dot scopes'''. The Mil-dots serve two purposes, range estimation and trajectory correction.
| |
| | |
| With a Mil-dot reticle-equipped scope the distance to an object can be estimated with a fair degree of accuracy by a trained user by determining how many angular mils an object of known size subtends. Once the distance is known, the drop of the bullet at that range (see [[external ballistics]]), converted back into angular mils, can be used to adjust the aiming point. Generally Mil-dot scopes have both horizontal and vertical crosshairs marked; the horizontal and vertical marks are used for range estimation and the vertical marks for bullet drop compensation. Trained users, however, can also use the horizontal dots to compensate for bullet drift due to wind. Mil-dot reticle-equipped scopes are most suited for long shots under uncertain conditions, such as those encountered by military and law enforcement [[sniper]]s, [[varmint rifle|varmint hunters]] and other field shooters. These riflemen must be able to aim at varying targets at unknown (sometimes long) distances, so accurate compensation for bullet drop is required.
| |
| | |
| ====Metric Mil-dot formula====
| |
| Users of the [[metric system]], (which includes most of the world's military forces by whom this system was developed), can much more easily use a Mil-dot reticle since the mental [[arithmetic]] is much simpler. It is always decimal.
| |
| | |
| To determine the distance or range to a target of known size at an unknown distance this formula can be applied:
| |
| | |
| :<math>D = \frac{S / 100}{mil} \cdot 1000</math>
| |
| | |
| where:
| |
| * ''D'' = distance or range to the target in meters
| |
| * ''S'' = size of the target in centimeters (known width or height of the target)
| |
| * ''mil'' = number of Mil-dots
| |
| | |
| This is otherwise simplified as:
| |
| | |
| :<math>D = \frac{S}{mil} </math>
| |
| | |
| where:
| |
| * ''D'' = distance to the target in meters
| |
| * ''S'' = actual size of target in millimeters
| |
| * ''mil'' = scope size of target measured in Mil-dots
| |
| | |
| When used with some riflescopes of variable objective magnification and fixed reticle magnification (where the reticle is in the second focal plane), this can be modified to:
| |
| | |
| :<math>D = \frac{S}{mil} \cdot \frac{mag}{10} </math>
| |
| | |
| where:
| |
| * ''D'' = distance to the target in meters
| |
| * ''S'' = actual size of target in millimeters
| |
| * ''mil'' = scope size of target measured in Mil-dots
| |
| * ''mag'' = scope magnification
| |
| | |
| (However, a user should verify this with their individual scope since some are not calibrated at 10x.)
| |
| | |
| ====Imperial and US customary units Mil-dot formula====
| |
| To determine the distance to a target of known size: '''(Distance in yards) = 1000 / 36 x (Object size in inches) / Mils'''
| |
| | |
| To determine the size of a target at a known distance: '''(Object size in inches) = 36 / 1000 x (Distance in yards) x Mils '''
| |
| | |
| Knowing these relationships, you can set up a target range by drawing a vertical or horizontal line onto our target that is 3.6 inches long then backing up until the line is exactly one mil long in your scope for a 100 yard range, 7.2 inches for 200 yards, 10.8 inches for 300 yards, etc.

| ==Definitions of the angular mil==<!-- This section is linked from Sniper -->
| |
| | |
| There are 2000[[π]] milliradians (≈ 6283.185 mrad) in a circle; thus a milliradian is just under <small><sup>1</sup><big>⁄</big><sub>6283</sub></small> of a circle, or ≈ 3.438 minutes of arc. Each of the definitions of the angular mil are similar to that value but are easier to divide into many parts.
| |
| | |
| * {{frac|6400}} of a circle in [[NATO]] countries.
| |
| * {{frac|6283}} The “real” trigonometric unit of angular measurement of a circle in use by telescopic sight manufacturers using (stadiametric) rangefinding in reticles.
| |
| * {{frac|6000}} of a circle in [[Soviet Union|the former Soviet Union]] and [[Finland]] <small>(Finland phasing out the standard in favour of the NATO standard)</small>.
| |
| * {{frac|6300}} of a circle in [[Sweden]]. The Swedish term for this is ''streck'', literally "line". Sweden (and Finland) have not been part of NATO nor the [[Warsaw Pact]]. Note however that Sweden has changed its map grid systems and angular measurement to those used by NATO, so the "streck" measurement is obsolete.
