求翻译：The Siege Elephant is an incredibly tough Indian siege unit, essentially a Culverin mounted on the back of an elephant. It does massive damage to buildings, ships, and other siege. While elephants were not very effective as siege weapons, many armies tried to capitalize on the beast's strength or size when attacking enemy fortifications, and in some instances, the light cannon were mounted on the Howdah, or carriage, that was secured atop an elephant's back.是什么意思？
