Mission 37: Extreme Traitors' Caravan, Listen to all conversation between transport truck driver and outpost tip.

I assume this is also a thing for the regular version Mission 16: Traitors' Caravan.

Basically the conversations won't trigger unless you get within about 50-60 meters of the truck driver. Otherwise he just stands in place wherever he's supposed to have the conversation and if you don't show up quickly enough he drives off. I didn't know this so the place i was spying on him from was a bit farther away so i thought my game was glitched. Since he would just stand there silently, Anyway make sure you don't get too close or else it triggers the Skulls.

This is one of the easier ones to do because you have the wall surrounding the airport to block their view. Just get right up next to the wall. I believe it puts you at 17m. (Close enough that you can hear the conversation unassisted.) Once the conversation is over, go ahead and prep for the next one. There's plenty of time before the convoy gets there.

Raiden suit + stealth camo makes this easy.
If memory serves, skulls show up at ~36m and the convos trigger at 50 or so.

if you can see the little hand icon for CQC, then you know you've got too close.

Replayed this mission today for the second time. Only reason I had issues was because I decided to defeat the skulls instead of just getting on D-Walker and leg it like last time.
I just ended up hopping into one of the escort tanks to blast away while Quiet did nice work with the SB.
Incidentally, I wish I knew what stats and modifications her rifles have at max bond. I also wish I could use them myself. Damn things powerful.

I've found a great weapon for defeating them is a CGM-25, The rank 6 variant fires 12 very low velocity missiles, But they've devestating when they make contact and you can sometimes hit multiple skulls at the same time. And you don't even need to have them lock on to fire.

If you want to kill them, just use the serval/brennan. No need to complicate things with explosives.

Though distracting with decoys can help too. Serval + Decoy = All Dead

It's not really needed, but can give you some distance between you and the skulls. Plus it's comical to watch them attack a blown up bag of plastic.
