Not quite. There is an element of cooperation involved but the payoff structure is qualitatively different, as is the timing. If you defect in the PD then the other person is better of defecting as well. If you break your radio the other guy is best off not breaking his. The PD is simultaneous while the radio is not. (So if you break your radio the other guy is able to hunt you down and bitch slap you.)

Ah, yeah. Somehow only the notion that “if you don’t cooperate, something undesirable will happen (to someone)” remained salient in my mind.
