If the review was scoped as you suggest, and merely focuses the UK armed forces on home defence, you would end up with maybe 4 Typhoon AD squadrons, 1 wedgetail AEW Sqn, 1 P-8A squadron, a couple of radar stations, the SAS, a few ceremonial Guards regiments, a few OPV's and that would be about it.
We really should be "moving away" from expeditionary warfare in the middle east, when the danger on the borders of Europe is growing, to consolidate on the security of "home base" If properly executed your list would do for Scotland and the Northern Approaches; Monday to Friday.
