I'm sure they do unseat and take below the optics. But the optics aren't much good, after all, if the pedestal mount for it has been twisted into pasta.

i thought i heard a real life report somewhere of a U-boat which had its conning tower more or less destroyed in a depth charge attack... the persistant captain and crew proceeded to fashion a UZO pedistal out of a mop/broom handle and then they rigged it to what was left of the conning tower... IIRC they even successfully used this makeshift UZO mount in at least one attack.
