Briefing Paper: Defence in an Independent Scotland
The armed forces are the most Union-focused of all the UK's public services. Unlike health and education, breaking up the UK's military capability in the event of Scotland deciding to leave the union will present many difficult challenges related to both dividing existing assets and also the creation of new, independent structures for Scottish defence - to say nothing of the nuclear question that both Scotland and the rest of the UK would need to settle.
Plenty of downloadable articles of interest, just go to the link and explore the options.
