Yes MrChef, the (plastic) periscopes were already glued into the metal hatches, and the mine launchers were in the bag of bits.
I'm uncertain of the exact source manufacturer's for all the parts as it was a bit of a mixed bag, mostly metal.
The turret ring gear was missing, as were parts of the air intakes, and the MCU was non-working, but there are quite a few surplus duplicated items too, such as a complete sub base with aluminium insert, lever arms, axles, idler wheels etc..
