Why hasn’t the USA kept being in the lead with military technology?

They have kept the lead….Hugely.
The US Navy have laser weapons -’phasers on kill Mr Spock’
And they work, unlike other nations publicity/vanity projects.
They have stealth fighters
…and stealth bombers
Exactly who else has….?
Now there’s the much talked about F-35, and there’s an armchair expert willing to take on the real experts every time it’s mentioned
China has of course got the J-20 ‘stealth fighter’
Look familiar? All that hacking works wonders…But like all copies and ‘knock offs’, how will it work?
So where are they lagging behind? Artillery. Not because they want to, but because they have signed conventions that limit the ordinance those systems can fire.
Tanks…the M1A2 is a great tank. Yes it’s getting old but it has been upgraded with the latest kit. Russia has the Armata T-14…all 20 of them. NATO have already developed a tank gun to kill it that can be fitted to existing MBTs.
The US Navy (apart from its laser weapons) has a few new toys…
Everything above is old news…The US hasn’t stopped developing new military technologies…They just don’t tell everyone about them
