Thanks Anik. That looks like a decent amount of progress. The UM is larger than I thought it would be.

We have a name: «Причал»?
Yes. Words «Причал» and «Пирс» is synonymous in the Russian language  ;)

It looks like the underwater mockup of the Node has been built:

One issue that has not been discussed here much is the Progress PAO that will bring the Node to ISS. Because of the Node's heavy lateral docking ports, the current Progress thruster arrangement is insufficient to control the stack during docking operations - so, at the very least, the mid section thrusters will have to be moved.

I have not seen any documentation on this modification. Nor do I know if the modification to the thrusters would become standard for future Progress.

Is this just based on your own thinking or do you have a source for this assertion?

I'm having some real doubts this design is for use with the ISS.

According to this diagram, the mid section thrusters extend out to 1.57 meters from the center line, compared to 1.22 meters for Progress.

If you look closely on the image above, you can see mid section thrusters on a stand-off.

I don't want to disrupt the thread, but once this new thruster configuration is done. Couldn't this be used for a new Progress configuration that can take advantage of the Soyuz-2.1B performance?

PAO mockup and UM mockup for static ground test
this looks like Soyuz tooling was used?
How does the size compare with Soyuz?
