During the Cold War, the Soviet Union and NATO were better in different areas of technology. For example, Soviet tanks had more powerful armaments, anti-tank missiles, explosive reactive armor, and active defense systems, while NATO tanks had better fire control, armor, and defensive design (blow-out panels, heavily protected ammunition, etc.). This was also the case in areas such as aerospace, where the Soviets had technologies that allowed for a high degree of automation, better space station technology, as well as spacecraft that received power from nuclear reactors, while NATO nations had better technology for operations beyond low Earth orbit, more developed solid rocket technology, and more advanced launch systems such as nuclear thermal rockets (never used as a flight item) and semi-reusable space shuttles (of course, the Soviets eventually made one of their own).
What if some of these technologies were incorporated together? This could be anything from a neutral state incorporating some technologies from both blocs on purchased goods (for example, Western electronics on Soviet tanks), or even higher level cooperation due to significantly improved relations.
