Imre said:
If the gravity is that low, then there would be no appreciable
atmosphere,
so beams would also be able to engage that non-moving structure in a
raid.

I'd assume military structures on airless bodies would be sub-surface,
so
it shouldn't necessarily be all that exposed.  However, for most
planets,
by the time they get started on lunar installations, they ought to be
able
to buy/build defenses--my main concern was the frontier planets whose
only
substantial defense would be their atmosphere plus some light ground
forces
