A lot of people will tell you it was The Bomb. As a Cold War cryptologist, my vote is for the R-390A/URR radio receiver, used for decades by American intelligence to monitor the Soviets. The R-390 and the information gained from it allowed us to use diplomatic approaches to settling disagreements between us and the Soviets.
