This challenge is also against Cobra drones, the militia heavy tanks. Unlike Big Game Hunter, here you can engage with Cobras without the battle instantly ending. It’s not explicitly a stealth mission, but since the enemy force is made entirely of heavy tanks, it’s still basically a stealth mission. This is especially true since the number of total Cobras increases by two for each Cobra you demolish.

You can lose Cobras that have spotted you by hiding from their red scanners. Go around a corner, or park behind a large object, or in an alley.

If you’re caught out in the open by multiple Cobras, it’s time to get out of there. Swap back to Pursuit Mode, engage the Afterburners, and put anything you can between you and those laser-guided barrels.

Once you’re heavily incentivized to look for cover by hulking heavy tanks, you’ll notice there is a lot of useful debris to hide behind.

When a Cobra sights you, a red laser zeroes in on the Batmobile and you don't have very long to pick a different spot to be. If not, the Cobra’s shell deals a hideous amount of damage to the Batmobile’s armor. Direct engagement with Cobras is not a sustainable prospect. They can be fooled, however; aside from driving carefully to end up behind them in their patrols, you can use the 60mm Cobra Drone Lure Upgrade to turn your Heavy Turret shell explosions into a distraction for these giants. When you fire after obtaining this upgrade, they are drawn to the location of the shell’s detonation instead of the Batmobile’s turret.
