The 2 Orions based in Greenland have Maverick missiles. They can make a couple of strike mission against soviet task force before the surface engagement begins.

The Maverick sensors are also good for identifying the targets at more of a stand-off range, enabling you to locate and focus on the cruisers' detachment.

Old-fashioned and obvious tactics perhaps, but what worked for me was concentrating my forces and defeating theirs in detail. The Soviet ships went down quite quickly, and by taking out the cruisers and their immediate support first, much of my force was preserved and relatively healthy for killing the others - which, as per the briefing, is a nice-to-have anyway.
