Nope.

The Lightning that used to be outside West Drayton ATC wasn't an F.2A it was F.2 XN769, and was at the time of it's scrapping the last complete F.2 that hadn't been modded to F.2A standard.
So, it can't have had the extra 2 x Aden in the forward belly tank as F.2's had the F.1/F.3 small ventral tank.
