Although not US or Russian I'm suprised no one has mentioned Martin Baker who began it all, 7069 lives saved so far including 28 this year alone.

The Europeans, aka the Brits and Germans developed a Closed Cockpit ejection system for the Eurocopter, the one that France and German are currently using, so far I haven't heard of any failures.
