Er, I think you may be in for a pleasant surprise - although I don't think it was the Mk 3...
*ps - you may have just forced me to put another £20 on the credit card...

I don't think they did, but I'd love to see what it would've looked like
If they did, it would've been in the old colours (red,white & grey ???)
Cheers,
Carl
P.S. - Where'd you find pictures like that? ???

Following the conversion and contractor's trials, WR982 was delivered to the A&AEE Boscombe Down on the 14th of April 1964 for C(A) Release of Phase III armament, including bomb-bay heating, auxiliary fuel tank jettisoning, special stores drops and an investigation into vibration problems. On completion of these trials on the 20th of May 1965, the aircraft was allocated to HSA for refurbishing prior to RAF service.
She arrived at Langar on the 25th of May 1965 and on completion WR982 was ferried to Kinloss on the 12th of November 1965 and issued to 120 Squadron coded as A. During the period of March 1966 to July 1966 Vipers were installed by HAS. Once this work had been completed, WR982 was transferred to 201 Squadron and coded J. During February 1967 she was moved to Kinloss Wing charge, retaining J code.
From March 1967 to May 1967 WR982 was at 60MU for fitment of STR 70 radar altimeter. On the 4th of August 1967 she was allotted to MinTech on loan for Viper (with water methanol) take-off trials and clearance of the radar altimeter at the A&AEE.
WR982 was ferried to Boscombe Down on the 7th of August 1967. WR982 remained at Boscombe Down until the 28th of November 1967, when the aircraft was returned to Kinloss still as J. She retained this code until withdrawn from service during September 1970 and was flown to Cosford on the 6th of October 1970 for use as an instructional airframe at No. 2 SoTT. At this time she received the maintenance serial 8106m. Offered for sale by the MoD 1988 in 'fair condition', the aircraft was purchased by N. Martin of Lutterworth.
Thankfully it wasn't "raspberry rippled"...
PS - the A-Jets may have a new variation on the theme next year at Boscombe...
