This has been noticed before and the answer seems to be that it is actually like this in real life. Speculatively, the wide-angle view has a large crosshair for quick acquisition, while the zoomed-in view has a fine crosshair for precise targeting without obstruction. I never did contact Bolkow to find out the real reason though.
