In the U.S., participation with these agencies is entirely optional. My understanding is that they offer access to government locales, equipment, and consultants in exchange for a positive portrayal. This would seem to me a fair trade, and one which the audience is able to perceive and assess.
In China and similar countries, good luck portraying the army in a negative light, whether you ask for their cooperation or not.

If you want your film to include footage on a warship, or with tanks, or etc you'll need the armed forces to cooperate, and they only cooperate on films that make them look good. Better CGI and good set design is making this less of a problems. This isn't really a problem of censorship, but it is propaganda.
