Europe's export-dependent defense industries in particular have enjoyed a multibillion-dollar bonanza in the region.

Last year British sales to the region were worth more than $8 billion, while French exports, excluding arms, brought in around $3 billion. The Japanese sold $6.8 billion in the region...
