The authorities said, it has been found cracked apart on the seabed in waters off Bali, as it confirmed that all 53 crew perished in the disaster.
Authorities said that they received signals from the location more than 800 meters deep early Sunday morning.
They had used an underwater submarine rescue vehicle supplied by Singapore to get a visual confirmation of the KRI Nanggala 402.
More parts from the vessel were also retrieved, including an anchor and safety suits worn by crew members, they said.
"There were parts of KRI Nanggala 402, it was broken into three pieces," said Navy Chief of Staff ADM Yudo Margono.
