It's in the strategy FAQ, but the basics are _never_ever_ take on a group
of enemy forces. use your sniper rifle, kill the grunts from a distance,
then bomb the SAM sites. use the chopper to get you in and out of hot
spots. You'll get to a point overlooking the base. Pick a target and make
a dash for it.
maybe even get the chopper to drop you in. one blown building suffices

good luck

Nononononononononono.
Do this. Kill guys on first island. Get sam-sites, get chopper. Fly
seal northwest to shore, don't worry about the flare (of course) then
go SW all the way, then north, and kill guys (don't risk the site,
guys may come out and gun you down) then scout out north, and retreat,
until you see the buggy driving round. When the buggy has left the
screen eastwards, go north, and penetrate the base, when they send
tank, run in go north, then east past the fencing and get the airbase.
This'll save you mission 7 (ifyou get something else, you'll be told
you screwed up and the building you destroyed will not be available to
the enemy (neither for rebuilding)) but play 7, it's great fun!!

See ya

Hmmm. I never ran into any trouble here. Just walk around with your commando
shooting all the little guys and as soon as you see a buggy or tank coming
up to you step in your chopper and fly away. Make sure you don't get to close
to the samsites with your chopper. If you blow 'm up with your commando they won't
give you any trouble anymore.

Lure the tanks out of the base to the lower left corner of the screen and then
use your chopper to fly back to the base and you can walk right into their base and
take out the airfield.

The following worked for me.

Get the Sam sites in the first phase. Kill all Nods on the isolated
part. When the chopper comes go over to the smoke grenade.
Get the commando out. I usually kill the sentry to the left and
slightly to the North (not nescessary, but if feels agressive). Then
run like hell all the way to the eastern edge of the card. Do not stop
for anything. Do not try to rack up kills. Buggies and tanks will
loose interest in you after you get by. Most of the cannon rounds will
miss.

Then turn north at the eastern edge. Go as far as you can to the
North, then turn West. There you have to watch out for Nod personnel.
To the left there is one among the buildings. Take him out. 

There is another in the chain-link fence compund. Take him out. Then
you should plant a charge on one of the buildings. When it explodes,
that ends the mission. I usually do the hand of nod barracks. Others
counsel taking out the airstrip. I tried that once and the mission did
not terminate. Also you have to run further. I am usually deep in the
red by the time I get to the barracks.

This works for me about 4 times out of ten. It took about 15 tries
before I worked it out. 

I also counsel Roger Wongs FAQs that provide a thumnail strategy
sketch for each scenario.

Hi!

I had the same trouble with that level..
But finally I got thru it.. You only need the chopper to take you
cross the river and the over some mountains, but use your commando man
and blow upp the missiles forms before you fly over with the chopper..

Then You have to go to the enemy base and blow up a powerplant, you
don't need the chopper to do that, bcoz if you use it it will be blown
up.. Use the commando man and walk straight into the enemybase and
blow the powerplant up, then try to stay alive for a few seconds, then
your mission is acomplished...

Hope this will help you...

Actually, you should blow up the air strip.  If you blow up the power plant, 
you will have to do another mission.  Also, when restating the mission, it 
says to blow up the *** ***** which is filled in with air strip.  The key to 
this mission, I believe, is doing it quickly.  Don't linger around b/cuz the 
nod will send tanks etc to kill you.

sure you could do the air strip to aviod the base destruction 
method......but why reduce the challenge and game play hours?????
