On the Airbus fleet it is, I think that is standard for Airbus ops though. As soon as you kick off the AP the approach capability degrades to CAT 1. In Canada I believe you require a HUD to do a CAT II or better hand flown. The only aircraft with a HUD are the 787s and the 737s. The A220 will come with dual HUDs installed. Never flown the 787 or 737 so I can't speak for those.
