Technology is not the trouble the problem is make profits and sell the technology.you make the assumption there is still a free market where prices regulate purchases/competition/investment. I don't believe there is.
EU doesn't play the game on a level playing field.....state funding, currency destruction, war, conquest..... why would others? Why care what the EU wants to sell?
Must protect your group by doing business within your group....cabalism, mercantilism....(due to limited money within group). In this case don't need to have the best. Just need to have something that can do the job.
Recycling money will give the group time. Time to invest in/create better technology.
In the History of aviation many companies embarked in aircraft programs that bankrupt them.
Example
MD-11 for example represents a clear example the trend was 2 engine aircraft, Airbus started that trend Boeing followed with B-757 and B-767.
MD-11 has 3 for that reason failed, A-300 had 2 and Boeing followed, the trend was less engine more economic efficiency, so most companies stopped building 3 engined aircraft.
Russia for example could not sell Il-96 for the same reason, airliners always want to sell cheaper tickets to get more constant customers, aircraft that offer lower ful burn and cheaper ticket prices then succed.
Embraer skipped the process of making everything made in Brazil and simply took components made by other companies and assembling them in Brazil with few brazilian elements, but who cares as long as they make money, others fail because forget you have to let others benefit so money is more or less distributed Embraer and Airbus are good example of that, ITP and R&R do share technology, both benefit, Spain is a power in jet engine design and manufacturer who cares the end product goes with R&R if they still make money?
That is what our chinese posters they lack to understand
