Werewolf ( http://samlib.ru/a/afanasiev_a_w/, see flibusta for the full list ) had written several long series, "Tom Clancy style".

But I think only one of the series is actually interesting: "Наступление". The settings are 1982-1988, but Gorbachev was assassinated in 1986. Unlike his other series, this one is realistic. Unlike Tom Clancy, he shows respect to US forces. Most of the fights described in the series happens in Afghanistan. A lot of "заклепки, командирскаябашенка". Big part of the book are struggles between KGB, GRU and police in Soviet Union. It is great that there is no "попаданец" who wins WW3, that makes most of other books in the genre unreadable.
