Not exactly sure why we need 2 dials to show the bearing when we have it on the periscope
It served for checking that the TDC was actually following correctly the input of the scope with no error. Since the TDC needs to take into account target bearing for the caluclation of the shooting angle, it was also not difficult to display it also.
