Not only that even the Japs are way ahead. Remember of the Japanese collaboration with the Nazi German, it was mainly scientific, who knows what the Japs got from such alliance.
Japan is only ahead of US in some niche civilian technology, but in term of the military technology, they are fully dependent to US just like Europe.
UK had to buy the Trident II SLBM from US.
France's own M51 SLBM also derived from the US technology.
I am pretty happy that we are fully independent today even we are way bebind.
We have a large amount of human resources to develop everything just like US, unlike France and UK who were limited by their population and size, can only go for some niche technology.
