it's all about the money
and carriers:
the USA has 7 carrier battle groups, each with 100+ combat aircraft... the UK has 3 tiny aircraft carriers and I think France just has 1
but we are all great friends and do alot of business together

The US spend alot yes, but combine all European countries and you'll see that the figure will not be so far behind the US.
As for the carriers, they would be sunk pretty fast on both sides, so I doubt it would matter.
I think alot of the modern weponry would be useless pretty fast since I'm sure both the US and Europe would destroy every military satellite pretty fast.
