TIMELINE OF ENTIRE RED ALERT UNIVERSE SPOILERS ABOUND!:
I don't think it would be around 1945 as in the later campaign the Russians get MiG's along with their standard insult of Yak aircraft. I believe RA 1 would be around the 1970's or 60's. Of course they could be referencing the MiG -9 "Fargo" but meh.

HISTORY OF RED ALERT:
Setting and story
Command & Conquer: Red Alert takes place during an unspecified period in the 1950s of a parallel universe, which was inadvertently created by Albert Einstein in a failed attempt to prevent the horrors of World War II.
Starting off in 1946, at the Trinity site in New Mexico, the opening to Red Alert shows Albert Einstein as he is preparing to travel backwards through space and time. After his experimental "Chronosphere" device is activated, he finds himself in Landsberg, Germany, in the year 1924, where he meets a young Adolf Hitler just after the latter's release from Landsberg Prison. Following a brief conversation between the two, Einstein shakes Hitler's hand, with this somehow eliminating the man's existence from time and returning Einstein to his point of origin.
With the threat of Nazi Germany having been successfully removed from history, the Soviet Union began to grow increasingly powerful under the rule of Joseph Stalin. Had Adolf Hitler risen to power, Nazi Germany would have emerged as a force standing in the way of Stalin's own ambitions of conquest. Instead, left unweakened, the USSR proceeds by seizing lands from China and then begins invading Eastern Europe, in order to achieve Joseph Stalin's vision of a Soviet Union stretching across the entire Eurasian landmass. In response, the nations of Europe form into the Alliance, and start a grim and desperate guerrilla war against the invading Soviet army. Over the course of the game's story, the Allies and Soviets fight out a devastating conflict for control over the European mainland, in what has become an alternate World War II.

The once mighty USSR is divided into 15 republics. The Soviet Underground movement began to fight FutureTech Corporation with success to expel the Allied occuaption forces from the USSR, giving them the means to rebuild their Soviet empire. They destroy the Sigma Harmonizer to rescue themselves and, indirectly, the Allies, from being chrono-erased by Rupert Thornley's madman plans of ridding the world of communism at the roots.
The Empire of the Rising Sun saw a shogunate uprising and, with Allied help, Emperor Tatsu almost restored full power to the now-defeated Empire. The Shoguns and Tatsu himself are now under Allied arrest - alternatively, the forward-thinking once-Crown Prince made his show of independence.
Yuriko "Omega" Matsui, through 3 phases of trials and tribulations, is now free, after she killed Izumi, her "sister", and Dr. Shinji Shimada, the man responsible for the "Omega Project".
