Happy New Year to everybody.

I see where you are coming from but no, not in this case.

Is it a fuel can for a jet or rocket?

No. It is a munition although your reference to 'can' is helpful.

Could it be a mustard gas bomb that resembles a milkcan only with a smaller neck/opening on top? just looked again and think it's called Mine Chemical No 1

Not a gyroscope, but you are headed down the right path.

Inertial measurement unit from Peacekeaper ICBM

its R2D2's brother R3D3!

It seems like Allan seems to know his U.S. Missile Guidance hardware today. It is the Inertial Guidance unit from a Peackeeper Missile. This particular example is in the Hill AFB museum in Ogden Utah. What the sign doesn't say, is that the ball is surrounded and suspended in a liquid, so that it can rotate in any direction without friction.

Allan, over to you!
