What is the purpose of this object on the back of the inital tiger I? It looks like an antenna base mount, but i'm, not sure. Also does anyone have any better detail images of this component?

It is indeed an antenna mount, the original planned location for the Tiger's antenna, but it was decided to keep the antenna above the crew compartment instead.
