The proposed sites are:
- Sites occupied by MOD
- Inglis Barracks, Mill Hill
- RAF Bentley Priory
- Royal Military Academy Woolwich
- Victoria House Woolwich
- Ha Ha Road Woolwich
- Sites Occupied by the USVF
- RAF Daws Hill
- RAF Eastcote

- Edison House
Additionally, the sites the MOD is proposing to retain and develop as Core Sites are RAF Northolt and Royal Artillery Barracks, Woolwich. Further, it has been proposed that RAF Uxbridge could be developed as a Core Site for the United States Visiting Forces (USVF). If the USVF do not participate in the project then the MOD would still vacate RAF Uxbridge.
