yes. a great job, but the modeler got terribly wrong. Soyuz is in fact smaller than in the model. The docking apparatus fits below the base cone of the launch shroud. The cylindrical portion of shroud encases the entire Soyuz vehicle. The upper conical nose is free. It contanis the SAS escape tower detaching mechanism and separation rocket casings.
