As a heavy Cobra user still at L33, the Cobra is a very solid unit in that it has good combination of health, range, and damage along with reasonable repair times.

Cobras are very afraid of high level Flak Tanks, especially if they're covering each other or covered by strong bunkers. A single Flak tank on its own can be killed with a sacrifice of 1-2 Cobras.

Flak Turrets can keep Cobras away, but I don't recommend them as they're vulnerable in other ways and you only get a few turrets.

Cobras avoid high level E Gats and Hercs, especially in numbers. However, an E Gat or Herc without supporting fire is vulnerable to a full pack of Cobras since they don't have area attack.

Stingers can be killed quickly if in the open and Cobras down ERM/EHG in the open.

A pack of Cobras can take down a Turret while a Cobra split off from the group tanks Stinger fire from a Watchtower at a cost of less than 1 Cobra, but a Stinger firing into the pack will do a significant amount of damage.

I'll occasionally use them on L4 or lower Watchtowers since the tower dies quickly due to low health and the Cobras can instantly finish off the infantry. Getting in range of many ERM or HG in a Watchtower is bad news though as they can very quickly drop even L12 Cobras.
