Extra Typhoon sqn for Lossie?

Apparently Fallon has announced (in a speech to the Scottish Conservatives) that Lossie is the preferred location for one of the two additional Typhoon sqns announced in the SDSR. With 3 sqns already there and the P8s to come, sounds a tight fit.

And on the assumption that it wouldn't be cost effective to locate a single sqn in isolation eg at Leeming, that also appears to imply that the other new sqn will go to Coningsby?

Sorry if this has been mentioned elsewhere - couldn't see anything on a quick scan
