I have the book, and you can tell Suvorov's input, especially when he's talking about that Soviet company commander, the initial Soviet plan (nuclear from the outset) that was rejected, and other touches.
One incident that a divisional commander reflected on: Day one, two battalions from one of his tank regiments facing VII Corps were set upon by A-10s. All they had to do was pull back into some woods and wait for the attackers to withdraw. That simple solution was forbidden by the KGB, and when the A-10s left, those two battalions had lost 80% of their armor.
