Yes. But although there were part numbers
produced for MicroVAX II CPU modules
*without* the FPU, I don't think *any* were
ever shipped.

The UV2K tech manual is at
http://208.190.133.201/decimages/moremanuals.htm
but I'm pretty sure that all 2K systems
shipped with an FPU.

Again it's a separate chip (IIRC) but neyond the
MicroVAX II era, everything shipped with an FPU.
I cannot think of any exceptions.
