There is absolutely no reason, either in the real world, or in sci-fi land, why you shouldn't be able to place weapons on the surface of a planet that reach into space. This is especially true when dealing with Groups that have a technology level sufficient to transport materials into orbit in massive, bulk quantities for no noticeable cost.
