I usually build a line of fortifications, and entrench 7x units with the highest close attack values I can. Then I send small expeditionary forces to take some land, and drag the Russian units to my fortified lines. Have stacks of arty behind the forts (with supply units ofc, anti air behind that (remember the Russkies use lots of high air units, so patriots/grumble are nice for this.)). Also anti-air sites in the forts are a good thing. And use radar sites, advanced if you can. This lets the 200km+ anti air do their work before they can send missiles at you.
Next use cruise missiles to knock out Russian airfields. If they have no air fields, they cannot buzz-saw your troops, as the high air foxbats and such have pathetically short ranges. Use missiles to counter their ground forces.
You need a strong airforce/missile capability to defeat Russia without high losses inflicted on your ground forces.
knock out Russian air power, and it's a walk in the park!
