I don't know much about European helicopters, but it seem to me that even with just jets, you are wrong. Also 0 American military helicopters are made in China or use Chinese components. When you produce parts for the military you have to provide you sourcing documents to they can make sure you aren't relying on china for critical items. And there is still plenty of industry in the US, I used to work at a machine shop making factory machine parts (and a bunch of other stuff).
The only jet Europe really relies of the US for is the f-35, everything else they have their own equivalents. Even for stuff like AWACS they have the Saab 340 AEW&C.

Dassault Rafale - 2001
Eurofighter Typhoon - 2003
Saab Gripen - 1996
Panavia Tornado - its old and no longer produced. I included it because I like it
F-22 - 2005
Meanwhile the Su-27 was introduced in 1985, 10 years older than the grippen, yet Russia still produces them in their various revisions, and is their principal fighter (Su-57 still isn't in mass production).

> The Su-27 _family_,
"family" is a quite meaningless term within this discussion. Su-27, on the other hand, is a particular aircraft. It is obsolete.
> The Su-33 is not obsolete, what would replace it?
Su-33 is long obsolete too.
> The F-15 is also not obsolete
F-15C is obsolete. F-15E is not. F-15EX is quite modern.

The Su-27 family is still produced, and China also uses it as their primary strike aircraft. It's fine, not great, but still very useful.

> The last B-52 was built in 1962
And continuously upgraded ever since. Re-engined too. What's left of 1962 vintage B-52? Airframe?
> The Su-27 family is still produced
Different airframe, different avionics, different engines. But who cares, it is only family that matters. Have it your way.
