What usually happens nowadays, is that technology greatly increases the amount of force which can be cashed out for. The start of the Nuclear age was literally applying a "new" (heretofore not yet applied to war) physics.
Applying space forces actively to war could well be applying a new part of the universe to war. (Airplanes and submarines were also this.)
