Another nugget from Jane's:

"Greece announces fighter buy The Greek government is to buy more than 50 Lockheed Martin F-16C/D Block 50 Plus and 15 Dassault Aviation Mirage 2000-5 Mk II multi-role fighters for around $2.2 billion, and upgrade 10 of the Hellenic Air Force's current Mirage 2000EGs to the enhanced standard. Athens has also confirmed its intention to procure between 60 and 90 Eurofighter Typhoons, to enter service by 2010."
