![]() ![]() Note countries using imperial units often print maps 1:24000, metric countries usually 1:2500 for a similar map. Smaller compasses just have a English and metric ruler, often with the inch ruler graduated in tenths or twentieths and leave you to do the math. It’s got a clinometer in the compass vial. Marked with degrees and mils measurements around the circumference of the protractor. It’s the sunnato with a clear baseplate significantly larger than the compass and a folding mirror. Fits for UTM, MGRS, USNG or other metric based coordinate systems. The compass can also be used as a protractor, I think it’s an MC2. My Sunnato compass has a ruler divided 20 parts to the inch on one side with a mileage scale on the other, with a kilometer on the bottom-the latter two calibrated for 1:24000, and the inch rule is ideal for measuring distances in a 1:24000 map, but you can’t claim it’s calibrated for any single scale. You can buy 1/10 rules for engineering, machining and architectural use- engineering scales come 20 parts to the inch also- each part is 100’. Measure the distance, shift the decimal point 3 places, and double the number. This is the most common map scale used by hikers, engineers, foresters, geologists, wildland firefighters, etc in the continental US.Īny ruler graduated in 1/10” will work also, each 1/10 is 200’. I have several such “ devices”- I don’t recall if any are protractors as well. DURABILITY - Stronger material and thicker then standard issue protractors. Use with UTM, MGRS, USNG and other metric coordinate systems. Thicker and strong then standard issue protractors. But not sure why you are having trouble finding one graduated for 1:24000. This is a military protractor equivalent to the Graphic Training Aid 5-2-12 Coordinate Scale and Protractor (GTA 5-2-12). But I’m pretty comfortable doing math in my head. This tool is equivalent to the Graphic Training Aid 5-2-12 Coordinate Scale and Protractor (GTA 5-2-12) For use with UTM, MGRS, USNG or other metric based coordinate systems. ![]() I’d be willing to make the corrections when needed. Military Style UTM/MGRS Coordinate Scale. Uaing a 1:25000 scale instead of a 1:24000, would cause you would be off by 4%. One cubit on the map is 24000 cubits the ground. 1inch on the map is 24000 inches on the ground. You were OK until you said:”So for simplicity sake, 1=24000 in inches is 1" in real world is 24,000 feet on the map.”ġ:24000 is a ratio. ![]() Military protractors are typically made of metal, plastic, and stainless steel, and other similar materials, such as aluminum, and iron, because they are less durable and can be used with measurements.Click to expand.NO. To contrast with military protractors, the military protractors are typically made of aluminum, wood, plastic, and other non-standard materials, and as a gift, they are best used with measurements. Polyester military protractors are typically used in measuring instruments, the length of the meter and the trending military scale rulers, and the other trenches are military withtric rulers, normally they, be made from higher-end materials such as wood, metal, plastic, and more. Military scale rulers are normally used as measuring instruments, and folding the protractor from any military scale rulers can be made out of stronger or more durable materials. One of the most used military protactors is the pencil drawing thicker and regular size, which makes them a great alternative to other types of construction equipment. Military tractors are used as a great, of-bike way to build different, andatable surfaces. What are the military protractors used in the military? ![]()
