Wasn't the Breguet 121 originally proposed as a NATO light-fighter replacement for all the Sabres and F84s rattling around? Competition eventually won by the Fiat G91. I can remember reading in 'Look and Learn' back in the 60s about the Jaguar being the replacement for the Gnat in AFTS service, too.
