The layout of the ramp means you can safely park visitors in the middle of the airfield, considerable distance from any perimeter fence that may be breached by those with ill intent, be they terrorist or pacifist.
The Lufthansa (SAL/STT) hangar is so large it causes an artificial crosswind in certain conditions. Aircraft midway through landing suddenly have to deal with airflow which up to then had been sheltered by the Hangar profile.
As you say, the area to the north next to the Lufthansa facility would be ideally located for a potential Air Corps 2nd base. It has good road access, but minimal private residences to annoy.
