An AoA indicator is an available option for all Airbus FBW aircraft. I'm not aware of an airline that was willing to pay for it.

ELAC

Part of the Air France A320 fleet is equiped with it. These aircrafts were part of the Air Inter fleet that was merged to AF 10 years ago.

They also had head up displays which were removed after a while although they were very handy on CAT3 approaches.

This story is taking a nasty turn for AF in France.
Here's a link to Radio France national radio where a comedian name Stéphane Guillon, has a daily editorial and this what he had to say today.
France Inter - Vidéo
No very good considering the large morning audience this guy has.
