No, it is not. The ADIZ has nothing to do with the extent of sovereign territorial waters or airspace. An ADIZ is an area in which a country has stated that it reserves the right to identify aircraft operating in that area which appear to be on a course to enter the county's sovereign airspace. It is not a claim of the airspace as sovereign airspace. An ADIZ typically extends well beyond territorial airspace.
