Guard Tower.

One of about 14 (or so) Guard Towers build by the American Army for use by the Uzbek Army Security Forces.

They consist of framed out wooden towers aprox 15-18 feet above ground, topped with a shack. Sturdy construction. Should last them quite a long time if they take care of them - which I doubt they will from how I've seen them treat equipment.
