Anyone know what this is?

I saw this plane on some website and thought it looked kinda cool, but I don't recognize it. I work in the warbird industry but I don't recall ever seeing this one. I suppose it's possible the picture is somewhat out of proportion; my boss thought it might be a squished up picture of an F-5 but Tiger doesn't really have a bubble canopy like this thing does, also an F-5 doesn't have the lower dorsal fins and this plane appears to be single engine. Whatever it is, it looks like it would be fun to fly.
Anyone have any idea what it is?

(I hope the image loaded... not sure if it did or not. If it did not, then look at this website if you're wondering....)

It is a variation of the BAe Hawk, a single seat Mk208

Okay, yeah I can see the family resemblance. I kind of thought about a Hawk but didn't know there was a single seat version.

It's the one the "tree huggers" complain about BAE SYSTEMS selling to various nations around the world!
