Yes, the 3 bays in the center are a PDP-15. (The indicator panel at the top
of the center bay is the one for the PDP-15 CPU; you can see it here:
http://ana-3.lcs.mit.edu/~jnc/tech/DECIndicatorPanels.html
at the top of the 'PDP-15' section.) The Unichannel 15:

is undoubtly there to drive the RK05; I don't think there's a native PDP-15
controller for that.

??? Is that a typo for 'PDP-15'? The -11/15 looks just like an -11/20
https://www.ricomputermuseum.org/collections-gallery/equipment/dec-pdp-1115
except it only has 16 address switches, not 18 as on the /20. (The front panel
shown there has an OEM-specific re-paint; I couldn't quickly turn up an image
of a DEC /15 front panel.)
