According to the UK Defence Journal they are patrolling out of Prestwick due to ongoing maintenance at Lossie.
Think given the number of recent incursions into UK waters and airspace of Russian ships and the old bombers you're probably correct.

Lossie has 4 x P8s flying out of it at the moment. There is a maintenance facility there. I would have thought that lossie would have been the logican place for a USN P8. I'm sure I read somewhere that when fully operational, Lossie will also host both US and Norwegian P8s.....
