Is this spacecraft identical to the Ekspress-AM7?
Nope, completely different. Ekspress-AM8 is an Ekspress-1000 bus comsat from Russian manufacturer ISS Reshetnev. Similar satellites launched before includes Ekspress-AT1/2, AMOS 5, KazSat 3, Yamal-300K, the 3 Luch-5 data relay satellites, the 2 GLONASS-K navsats and the failed Telkom 3, with Ekspress-AT1 being the most similar to AM8.
And coming soon, Lybid and Aonesat?
And possibly the Labirint ELINT satellite article 14Ф141. The tender for transportation of AM8 to the launch site indicates a connection with this family of satellites; plus various other references to shared components.

Good news for Energiya too!
In this 11S861-03 version of the DM, do the SOZ ullage motors stay attached, or will we see them cataloged
in transfer orbit?
