Special Hobby have released a series of resin upgrades for Revell's 1:72 Type IX U-Boat under their CMK range.

1/72 U-Boot IX Open Front and Rear Torpedo Muzzle Doors, for Revell kit
The Revell’s 1/72 U-boot typ IX model features the bow and stern torpedo tubes closed. However, before the torpedoes were launched, the tubes were flooded with water and open. And this set offers detailed resin cast bow and stern torpedo tubes with their muzzle door open. 3D-designed, master pattern parts produced on a 3D printer.
Item #N72010 is due for release soon, Price: 34.90 Euros

1/72 U-Boot IX Exterior Set Part I, for Revell kit
In the early years of the war, enemy’s submarines would attack and sink solitary ships with their guns while emerged on the surface, thus saving their precious torpedoes. This set brings open deck hatches and open 105mm cannon ammo box. The parts were 3D designed and masters produced on a 3D printer.
Item #N72013 is due for release soon, Price: 30.20 Euros

1/72 U-Boot IX Exterior Set Part II, for Revell kit
The sub’s conning tower will no doubt benefit from the addition of a rangefinder coupled with a telescope and a manhole hatch which replace the styrene kit items. The new resin cast parts also offer much higher levels of detail. One of the rangefinders offered is the type already in the kit, the other is of a different, later style not featured in the kit.
Item #N72021 is due for release soon, Price: 7.00 Euros

1/72 U-Boot IX Flak-Vierling Conversion, for Revell kit
During the Second World War, several various AA gun configurations appeared on German submarines. Some of the Type IX as well as the earlier Type VII submarines were armed with the 20mm Flak-Vierling four-barrel guns (Vierling = quadruplet). The Flak-Vierlings were used also on other vessels of the German Kriegsmarine as well as on Wehrmacht’s AFVs. This nicely detailed, 3D-designed set contains resin parts, turned metal gun barrels and a fret of photo-etched parts.
Item #N72023 is due for release soon, Price: 17.90 Euros
