Tu-4 it is. Here's the last known Tu-4 in Russia... Only the landing gear and tires were made in the US (the Soviets purchased them without the US government being aware).

It's located at the VVS Museum (Central Museum of the Air Forces) in Monino, Russia (38 km SE of Moscow).

They had a special on History channel yesterday on the three aircraft that landed in USSR. THey took one of them completly apart to measure all the parts. They could not manufacture the landing gears and tires so they bought them war surplus.
