Theoretically, an EC is 20 aircraft strong, while an ET is 12 strong. The actual figure for each squadron is not a data made public.
Depending on what duty the squadron is on, the availability can go as low as 30%, when the focus is on maintenance and preservation of airframes for example, while, iirc, up to 80% have been observed in 2011 during Operation Harmattan (Libya).
