Hello Jeff and Antonio,
I found the answer on page 15 of F.Koehl/Niestle's "Vom Original zum...", Translating comments to top photo left:
"Bow shot of U559 on slipway 3 at Blohm&Voss prior to launching......On stem between the the closed fairing lids of the torp tubes is the base of the 'Nah-S-Geraet' (Close in-Search-Apparatus) with the protruding deflector hoops. This unit intended for the detection of mines turned out to be ineffective, therefore, the removal was ordered 4/24/42."
Shows you search long enough and ye will find. Cheers, RB
