Hyperbole much?
I think you completely misunderstand what the EU is, the position of its member states, etc.
It's hard to take any point you tried to make seriously given that.
> Many EU countries have bought US fighter jets (Denmark for instance).
This is more related to NATO than to EU.

EU is not a country. Each country within the EU has its own government, and sometimes they exist in tension and are redundant with the bloc.
It is actually a point in favor of a more federalized EU. Each individual country in isolation is too ineffective on its own.
No. "Stronger together" is a hoax, and is only true if all participants are in agreement, otherwise you are "weaker together". 20 years of failed projects (apart from the law saying that bottles should have their cap attached) show that it is impossible to reach consensus with 27 participants.
Put 27 people in a room, all wanting something different, nothing comes out.
Many EU countries have bought US fighter jets (Denmark for instance). Many EU countries still make it clear that they want US technology (Poland for instance). Germany is sending extremely mixed signals.
So, when it's "EU sovereignity", which is it, the Polish flavored one, or the French-flavored one ?
