The last batch for Typhoon Tranch/3 aircraft with numbers 8024 - 8023 has been received by KSA.. from a total of 72 Eurofighters Typhoon.. 24 Tranch/2 and 48 Tranch/3..
And there was talk for buying another 48..but with the recent US deal, those might be replaced by 48 F-35, the price won't be much different, neither will be the delivery time..considering that it took 10 years from signing the British deal in 2007 to today's last delivery 2017, with the first Saudi Eurofighter has been delivered in 2009..
On July 9, 2014, the Saudi Typhoon fleet achieved 10,000 flying hours..
