No, military is much more about quantity. Far space is actually very pacifistic in its nature, because it reveals that all the Earth wars and squabbles combined are no more than a tiny mouse squeak on a tiny speck of dust on cosmic scale.

In space terms, barely. Competing military assets may, in the future, attempt to evade each other, or fight with submunitions or energy. The navigation tech is just chalkboard math. In Earth terms, ICBMs and UAVs can strike anything anywhere with better accuracy.
