Summary:
Let $r$, $s$, $m$, $n$, $q$ be natural numbers such that $s\ge r$. We prove that any $2$-${\mathcal{F}}\mathbb{M}_{m,n,q}$-natural operator $A\colon T_{\operatorname{2-proj}}\rightsquigarrow TJ^{(s,r)}$ transforming $2$-projectable vector fields $V$ on $(m,n,q)$-dimensional $2$-fibred manifolds $Y\rightarrow X\rightarrow M$ into vector fields $A(V)$ on the $(s,r)$-jet prolongation bundle $J^{(s,r)}Y$ is a constant multiple of the flow operator $\mathcal{J}^{(s,r)}$.
