DARPA helps drives technological progress in the US forward. If the EU wants to create a similar agency, key changes will be needed.

      The US defence industry does pretty well

      At what cost though? What about the rest of the U.S.'s public infrastructure, i.e. healthcare, education system, social security, etc?
      The U.S.'s military industrial complex does well because the U.S. defense budget was $886 billion in 2024.

      The U.S. drives on a fucked up system. We should be very careful about what we use as a role model.
