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

You’re missing my point. I even stated that the block would benefit from a concentration of military development instead of each nation’s own industries with occasional transnational cooperative projects.
My point is that I don’t want to simply replicate the U.S. american.military industrial complex and focus more on civilian issues first. Military must stay a means of defense, not a means in andof itself as I often have the impression of the U.S. military is.

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.
