This one was incredibly difficult.  I won by using the equipment group
to decoy the base defenses away from the ORCA while I sent my infantry
group in through the back gate to capture it.  A significant amount of
coordination is needed in order to get the timing down; both groups
need to be near the gates when the assault on the base starts.  I
extensively used my tanks to squish GDI infantry.  I doubt you can
succeed unless your equipment group can lure the medium tank away from
the gate nearest the ORCA.

Once the ORCA is commandeered, the village can be found in a remote
area of the map.  Only one of the infantry defending the village has a
bazooka; take him out and you can make bombing runs unopposed (but
keep an eye out for the gunboat).
