One way to tell that the Cold War is really over is to look at the Russian military industrial complex. During the Cold War years, they intentionally made their stuff to not be compatible with NATO. Now they sell NATO standard systems. You want to keep your stuff the same as your friends, you might want to share in a pinch, but always incompatible with your enemies, to hold down the utility of captured stock.
