cool mission
kinda easy and kinda tough
here's my humble opinion

SCB07ec (right arrow) Central African Republic. is a different mission all
together.  once you get the VTOL (Vertical Take Off and Landing) craft, you
take over the base, then build tanks to take out the gunboat, then use the
VTOL to take out the bazookaman in the northeast village just over the
river.  he will weaken your VTOL, but not before you kill him.  then at you
leasure take out the village buildings and villagers. (this part is very
dull). destroy enough, and you win.

of course, getting the VTOL is tough. i still have difficulty doing this. 
the troops to the west basically take out local GDI, and attack the base as
a diversion.  they draw and weaken the defenses from the east side.  your
troops on the east need to take out the tank, and grenader, then work their
way down. the guard tower may be destroyed (if you have the tank,move it it
first to draw fire, then attack it with everything else), or keep it
occupied (suicide units in front of it as human shields, Iran / Iraq style)
and run the engineers past.  try to get at least three engineers in. one
for the VTOL one for the barracks, one for the refinery when the harvester
is docked. this gives you money to build more engineers to take over the
rest of the base.  the local GDI basically ignore you, except for the guard
towers.  
sometimes i can run the western troops into the base by taking out the GDI
southern units/guard tower and blowing a hole thru the fence..then run in
(and sometimes run over with the tank) the units in the camp...again this
is a diversion, but one time i got the tank all the way thru to the eastern
troops!
