I believe the problem is partly one of mindset.
It seems everyone is thinking defensively and ignoring the fact that the Spetznaz have to have somewhere they're operating from. Why not sent out small patrols of your best people to find them and attack before they can do it to your PCs and allied forces?
As any infantryman should know, even when in defence, patrols must be sent out in an attempt to keep the enemy away from your positions. Once they're assaulting, it's already too late as they're likely to have scouted the position, worked out fields of fire, barbed wire, mines, etc, etc, etc and come up with a plan for avoiding/neutralising it all. If you can keep them away from the position in the first place, or at least delay their intel gathering efforts, you've bought yourself a good deal of time to further develop defences, prepare withdrawal routes, and so on.
Fixed defences can work, but they work best by denying intel about them from the enemy....
And don't forget that the best defence is a good offence.
