What makes you think it's over? Look at Sukhoi SU-47, F-22 Raptor, Zumwalt class destroyer, Virginia-class submarine, armed Predator drones, anti-satellite weapons tests, 30,000 pound bunker-buster bombs, all in the last 10 years.
What has changed is that now our biggest competitor is changing from Russia or the former Soviet Union to China, whose military expenditures are skyrocketing. They recently launched their first aircraft carrier, a 60,000 ton rebuild of an unfinished former Soviet aircraft carrier, and are building two more like it. They have a long range land attack cruise missile and a new ballistic anti-ship missile which worries US Military planners. They have successfully tested anti-satellite weapons, and have nuclear powered ballistic missile and attack submarines. They have an estimated 400 nuclear warheads at present.
They are building their own 3rd generation of jet fighters, such as the Shenyang J-11 and Shenyang J-15, based on Russian designs like the SU-27 and SU-33, which have been displayed at airshows and have performance comparable to the F/A-18E/F Super Hornet, or Dassault Rafale. And let's not forget the size of their armed forces, by far the largest in the world at about 2.8 million active duty personnel.

The arm's race started because the United States wanted to have a stronger military than the Soviets. They did this because the Soviets made bombs that could destroy a whole city.
