Russian reticles

All Russian built aircraft have reticles with two rings. My question is, should you be able to see both of the rings? I am not able to customize a view where both rings are visible in their entirety. Even if it is set so I lean into it I still only get a portion of the outer ring at any given time.

 

Does anyone know if this is historically correct?  Seems to defeat the purpose of the second ring.

This was a complaint from pilots of the time - namely, that the reflector glass was too small to effectively show the entire reticle. So yes, it is being depicted properly by the game.

You can see both rings if you move your head closer to the reticle, but then you'll be kissing the instruments and your field of view will be worse overall.
