As was the atomic bomb at one point in time. There may be exceptions for unintended uses of the technology you develop (a la Alfred Nobel), but there's not a lot of wiggle room when you work for the DoD.
You were hired to develop things that will eventually be used to kill people. That's the end goal of the job. Whether you make anything usable or not is somewhat beside the point, the intention is still there.
