It's probably just moved Tom. She was outside next to the missiles for yonks then suddenly conspicuous by her absence. I found her loafing in one of the hangars getting a fresh coat of paint. Can't see her ever leaving Duxford ;)

They move her around in and out when they do her up and she has had a strip down and re paint fairly recently.
