No, but there are a few mate threats, and you've been asking questions about composed positions, so it's very likely the best move in this position is a tactical solution which involves moves like Rh8.

I didn't calculate it all the way.  Looking with a computer the move I missed when I glanced at this was 3.h6  (In the line 1.Rh8 Rxh8 2.Rf1+ Kg8 3.h6).  But as I said I noticed the idea, and that's why I said it may be a cute win (I wasn't sure).

In a real game I would likely notice anyway though, because as I said there are some mate threats that pop out.  If I were very short on time I would not notice though, and would likely just trade rooks.
