I think you may have been slightly misled! F-35 will be a thoroughbred multi role aircraft and will be leaps and bounds ahead in technology. Typhoon has good performance, however, performance isnt everything in the modern air battle.

I think you'll find that the 4 squadrons slated to be GR7/9 are 800 & 801 and 1 & 4.
Pr00ne, just to add to BD's posting - 3 Sqn will form as the first front-line Typhoon unit next year.
