Cool. I just finished rereading it a couple of weeks ago, so it's pretty fresh in my mind.

Yes, but only in the naval air war. Over the European FEB, nope. I can't recall a single instance of a successful significant* Soviet air attack over land in the book.
*Like destroying more than a couple of tanks.
