I don't think this is a good idea. If a draft is really necessary (and in almost all cases it is not, in which case drafting people, apart from being a waste of money, would be outright immoral), women should have the choice between serving in the military (just like men) and doing civil service, just like modern orthodox Israeli women have this choice. However, it would be good for women to do a basic military training of three weeks, even if women will do civil service afterwards, and I do not see a problem in making that mandatory -- but only if the draft is really necessary, of course.
Of course that is discrimination, but discrimination is sometimes justified.
