Degrees to Mils Converter

Definition

A degree (°) is a unit of angular measure dividing a circle into 360 parts, used universally in science and navigation. A mil (short for milliradian) is approximately 1/1000 of a radian, with 6400 mils in a circle (NATO standard), used in military and artillery for precision aiming.

History

degrees originated in Babylonian astronomy around 2000 BCE, refined by Greek mathematicians like Euclid for geometric applications. Mils were developed in the 19th century, approximating milliradians (though standardized at 6400 per circle in the 20th century by NATO), for their simplicity in range estimation and targeting.
