Is it the product of a drunken night between an Alpha-Jet and a Gnat 
Super Gnalpha Protoype.

I agree, looks Gnatish in an Alphajet kinda way. Clinical observation....and I'm sticking to it.

Have a hunch it might be Indian, but then again may be way, way off!!!

That was the first thing that came into my head, but it looks kind of modified.

Miles away. Cold, cold cold...
The real thing's quite warm itself right now, but no-where near India.

Don't remember the company's name, but I think that is a mockup of the loser in the competition where the Alphajet was the winner. I saw this (or another mockup of it) in a little private museum in Bavaria in the 1990s.

It's the mock up of the AA107 swing wing attack aircraft designed by Commonwealth Aircraft Corporation (CAC) in the land of Oz in conjunction with British Aircraft Corporation (BAC) in 1968. Like so many other great CAC designs, it never got off the ground due to the lack of cash and government support.
Very cheeky James! Obscure Oz mockups!
I want my pony and I wannit now!

Correct. I'll let you off the 'where it is bit'. Ballarat Aviation Museum.
Out of the book 'From Wirraway to Hornet':

And I scrubbed out the national markings... Tsk.
On the other hand, like most of the quizzes, it's an aircraft in a public museum!
