This came up in another group and no one had an answer.

What is the relationship of the FAA to the military? Is the FAA the final
word on regulations for everything in the US airspace with the military
using an additional set of their own regulations?

FAA is the final authority.
Military must go through the petition/waiver/notice of proposed
rulemaking process to obtain permission for non-emergency issues.


???

The FAA doesn't have any say wrt airworthiness certifiation of US military
aircraft (any FAA certification of military aircraft is at the option of the
service).

And then there is the option of "due regard"
