The MOD and the UK Government need/want them in their current locations.
The likes of RAF Lossiemouth and Leuchars are positioned on the East Coast for obvious reasons. It is the same with Faslane on the Clyde and the several army camps up there too.
Quite what happens to them if Scotland gains independence will be interesting. I cant see Whitehall wanting to sell them though.
Keeping strategic military installations and bases may provide the bargaining tool which allows Scotland to keep the pound and prevent stringent border controls.
