American have been designing and building aircraft on their own since the very beginning of aircraft development and we've never stopped. Those American's have also designed and built some of the world's most efficient and advanced designs ever created. All the modern building material and building procedures came from the ingenuity of the Americans and that is why they are known for this tremendous ability to think outside of the box. Burt Rutan is probably the most famous and well known designer of aircraft the world has ever known, hats off to him.
As for the russians,,, well they still have hockey...
first in flight was the wright brothers from dayton ohio, they tested there first plane in north carolina so US was the first been first in everything ever since military wise.
