Funny how there is always an "RAF source" available to whinge about not getting the Apache. Of course the Typhoon will be in service on time and on budget and will enjoy 100% availability.

Modern aircraft should not need regular servicing. In fact I suggect regular servicing creates more problems than servicing when unserviceable. NB the Eurocopter EC135, at one stage the manufacturer suggested an 800 hour service interval, but the customer could not face that prospect so settled on a mini service at 100 hours as well.
