Right, as Oleg says not only were the plans not destroyed, I'd venture a guess that you could probably buy a set of the schematics yourself if you looked hard enough.
But the difficult part would be recreating all the factories and tooling used by the thousands of subcontractors making components all over the place. It would probably be more expensive to do it the second time around, even adjusting dollars for inflation.
