So, did we get to the bottom of this thread? What was the new arrival?

I was thinking along the lines of a Nimrod fuselage of something, but apparently it's far more mundane:

"Hot on the heels (or should that be tail fins?) of the the F.35 full scale model arriving in Milestones of Flight last week we are able to announce that the Gloster Meteor F9/40, which was originally on display at Cosford, has also joined this gallery's aircraft collection and will be fully on display to the public from this weekend (1st October)."

Strange to have a representation of an aircraft not yet in service in a Museum.

I did think it looked F-35-shaped, but thought that an F-35 would be unlikely to be trailered through Hendon so assumed it was that shape because of the cover.
