RAF Tucano replacements...

A few questions...

Anyone know which aircraft (if any!) are being looked at to replace the Tucano in RAF service?

When might the replacement take place?

Will the new fleet number more than the current total of Tucanos, or possibly more, in light of the teeny-weeny Hawk 128 order?

With the last question in mind, can we expect the replacement aircraft to be a jet and capable of fulfilling some additional roles that the Tucano is unable to do, thus the reason for the reduced number of Hawks?
