What is it ???

Hi mates,

In the stock SH3 and also in all GWX mod, there is an strange instrument.
I don't understand his function.
Who knows it ?
Why a red circle graduated in 10 parts ??

This instrument is in the hydrophones room.

yes, it is a gyro-compass. You can tell by the description Anschutz on it. It was the manufacturer of them, as well as for -the dunno the english word-device spinning fast enough to turn one element into another-needed for atomic bomb, heavy water was to substitute that method. The gyro spun circa 50 000 RPM.(I mean in RL)
