That 'strange mounty thing' is the coolant header tank and filling point for the sight elevation control arm cooling system (or whatever its correct nomenclature is!). The elevation bracket pivots from the turret roof and is connected to the armament by a link bar. The link bar is a tube which is connected via piping to the coolant reservoir. It is to keep expansion/contraction of the link rod to a minimum due to variations in temperature and hence, minimise alterations to the armament-range gear relationship. Only applicable to Centurion
tanks equipped with the RG.
