I'd be more inclined to think the three smaller red outlines represent the escape system hatches, and the single larger red outline forward of them would be a bomb bay.....but you could be right. Funny you should mention the Vigilante. A few weeks back I found a podcast called "The HangerDeck" where the host interviewed a former Vigilante pilot. Great interview on an oft overlooked a/c. The guest has written at least two books on it as well. http://www.thehangardeck.com/episodes/2018/2/25/episode-83-episode-83-boom-powell-the-a-5-vigilante-and-vietnam
As a kid, I remember seeing a Vigilante fly over our house on the way into WPAFB. It was a beautiful aircraft. I never saw another one until seeing one in the Pax museum when I was working JSF back in the late 90s.
