Is the escape part of "Supply network" even possible?
I'm playing this on recruit. I have made it 3 times to the objective, gotten "Mission complete" and then gotten blown up within 2 seconds because a helicopter was following me. How do I even win.

When the helicopter arrives you should already have parked up the truck and be on foot, get beyond the building heading away from the chopper and into the trees and bushes, make sure your squad are also doing the same (set them to hold fire, stealth and stay crouched). And from there on out you crawl / crouch jog your way up the valley staying in cover, the route you should take snakes around but suffice to say you stay at the lowest possible point on your way to the escape marker, you never head into open ground even thought it's the quicker path. When helicopter sounds as though it is flying in your direction, go prone under the nearest possible tree or bush and don't move again till it's passed over.

Do not try and drive because it seems there is an auto kill trigger beyond the house that destroys anything even if the helicopter is not there.

It may take you a while to reach the exit trigger point, but do what i said and you'll get there without trouble.

Yeah, already beat it. Put the game on the easiest setting, made the AI retarded and still got killed about 3 times, but did it by putting my only living squad member in the driver's seat and telling him to kill everything he sees. I took about 3 40mm grenades to the face in the process, but hey...

there is a simple principle behind this part of the mission: you take any kind of vehicle or you try to even go near the roads... and you're pretty much dead

Well what I did was take one of my squad members missile launchers and missiles and fired it at the helicopter. Got so close I scared it off and it didn't come back. Actually made another save to load it back to see if I could actually hit the b*stard lol.

Doing this mission right now, read some forum post on the BI forums of a guy saying he just took them all out. Just did the same. When you go to 'hide' the truck, just before ♥♥♥♥ goes down, there are crates on the back of the house with every type of launcher/missile imaginable. Was able to start with Titan AA and drop the heli, then switch to PCML for the incoming ifrits, snipe the snipers, etc. Was a bit hectic and loaded the save plenty of times, but I'm still at the house and they're all dead.
Also just tried at the end, just waltzing back to camp with the truck, as planned. Mission completes but they don't acknowledge it in any way. Did take home one of the cool Titan launchers. Doesn't look like anything in the truck went into the camp stash, I guess it only works that way on patrol missions.

Had some issue with this mission was well just now. What Garstrum said about the missile launcher in the back saved me. There's an MPRL that I used to take out one of the helis, then just had my 2 remaining men (the original ambush could have gone better) and booked it with them on the offroad with the HMG along the valley-ish area. Worked, though the GMG (I think?) still kept lobbing shots at me the whole way
