Use loss-leader tactics.. I didn't lose anything on either of the tanks. 
 Send an infantry to attack the mammoth, with the rest of you're squad 
close behind.  You want the tank to attack your infantry.  Once it 
starts, attack the tank with the rest of your arsenal.  Make sure the 
other tank doesn't spot your armor.  The mammoth will try to run over 
your little guy, but if you keep him running, he'll probably never die.
