europeans do not need uncle sams permission to send their own military hardware anywhere, they need uncle sams permission to send US patented and classified materials anywhere
similar to how the US needs permission to send [european country here]'s patented and classified materials anywhere

It’s got zero to do with European independence and everything to do with how a purchasing contract is set up.
