Ohhhh, well actually it is the LK-1 ahahaha.

There is the extra drogue which will also have a node, so you can still make the LK-700.

Similar, but slightly different. Likely based on some of the same modules. The LK-700 was supposed to have these odd folding legs which I haven't found a substitute for in KSP, but most of the other parts are workable.

Checking out the LK-700 photos...

 

Is it me or the sides of the dish on top actually fold when concealed under the LES? Because I see no other way for it to fit there.

I suspect it folded up, its also possible (though less likely) that the dish folded down on the "back side" of the capsule or something.

Well, I seriously doubt it folded upward, because the photo shows the dish has a solid central part and segmented sides. To me, it looks much like they are the collapsible part of the dish, folding inwards.

The drogue chute has a 0.625m top node, by the way, it is an inline parachute exactly like the existing Soyuz, TKS parachutes.

Never!

I can't believe you did this. :0.0:
I am super impressed, and I am asking for a court order to keep you 100m away at all times.

I kind of want to try this...
