Them at a 45° angle set of mirrors. In the process of manufacturing the device can be guided to one of the shows the structural schemes. The length of the spotting scope in the 300 – 400 mm can be considered sufficient. The periscope can be equipped with rotary device and handles that will allow you to feel like a real submariner.
