I've played over a dozen games and USSR has won all of them except twice, when USSR triggered DEFCON 1 by accident.
The geeks say USSR wins 2/3 of the time, so, yeah it favors the USSR moderately.
The variant here and in previous post (Arms Race Track) will have the effect of tilting it back toward America.

With the optional cards from the Deluxe edition it's pretty much balanced, stats from the TS League run from here by Ron Jacobsen, and from wargameroom.com confirm this.
I've played it about 300 times and have found it more or less balanced between players of comparable skill.
