Yep. And the inner ring on the lower dial is meant to indicate to COMPUTED relative target bearing on its 12 oc position in real time, so that you can check the solution for accuracy if this bearing matches the sighted relative target bearing you can see from your scope, or if it outruns / lags behind it. Unfortunately, as of know this dial is bugged and will only work (move) for starboard side targets or something, otherwise it will always center on a bearing of 0°. But this has already been reported.
Also: Even when this dial is fixed, it would still be cool to have a numerical (as in "312") target bearing readout, like in SHI, because to find out solution errors you need a pretty accurate and readable readout, which the inner ring is not. Remember, that dial was lot bigger iRL. For long range shots, even slight bearing errors will lead to missing the ship, and the less accurate the readout, the longer you will have to track the target to note a difference.
