It's some model of Lewis gun, and the sights appear to be those for aerial combat. This may have come with a rotating mount for a biplane backseat gunner, although the Brits (and others) used similar mounts for scout vehicles during WW2.NukeRaider33 wrote:

Another ship... BS this time, 4x3 12-inch guns in a very curious turret layout! Do they really want to blow off their own bridge?

Very good, the "Marat" to be precise.

The midships main gun turrets were a feature of many of the early modern "dreadnought" battleships, starting with HMS Dreadnought herself. Even several relatively modern second-generation U.S. Navy battleships had midships main gun turrets (e.g., USS Texas). The design concept largely passed out of vogue as naval gunfire targeting technology improved, and the tactic of a broadside battle line "crossing the T" of the enemy's battle line became outdated. Crossing the T required BBs with midships main guns to present the broadside -- and largest target aspect -- to the oncoming enemy, not generally the best tactic in an era of accurate 15-, 16- and 18-inch gunfire. As evidenced by the Bismarck vs. Hood encounter in 1941, whichever BB scored the first hits with its big guns would be the likely winner.K.Rokossovski wrote:

Injinji is correct: it is a depth charge thrower commonly known as a "hedgehog." When an enemy submarine was detected as being close by the attacking destroyer, it would fire all of the hedgehog depth charges in a pre-set pattern, effectively blanketing the area with enough explosive charges to damage or sink the submarine.Peter Mat wrote:

Hedgehog is correct.

LOL, My Google images said it was a modern Canadian Troop Transporter. But I like your Mechanized Inf idea better. You should see the spoof for the battleship and the aircraft carrier.
