Do you really think that HM's RAF will maintain a huge base like Lossie (4 Typhoon and 2 Poseidon Sqns) in an independent Scotland?

I know you will say that the iScAF will use Lossie, but do you really believe that? Much more likely any AF will be too small to have stand-alone bases and much more likely it would share civilian airport real-estate (e.g. Prestwick) .
