Photo from ABERDEEN
The AFV ASSOCIATION was formed in 1964 to support the thoughts and research of all those interested in Armored Fighting Vehicles and related topics, such as AFV drawings. The emphasis has always been on sharing information and communicating with other members of similar interests; e.g. German armor, Japanese AFVs, or whatever.

An early (i.e. bigger) version of the recuperator? It seems to appear in different lengths on different vehicles, here are other longish ones (from freerepublic.com):

Unique ID 724: APG M3A5

It's the counterweight for the stabilizer.

In many cases it is obvious that it is common plumbing pipe!
