So in terms of Typhoon squadrons, what's moving to Lossie? and how much work is Northern Q getting these days?

As I was perusing the shelves in WH Smiths, I noticed there was an interesting article / editorial / leader in AFM this month about Tornado squadrons. To summarise, it said, whilst it was announced that 617 was disbanding and would be the first to equip with F35 (maybe...), not much has been said about 12 Squadron disbanding, and if 12 goes, what need would there be for XV. It would also take the RAF down to 7 front line squadrons.

I have to say, that depressed me somewhat.
