I just got the GBA version second hand, and I am facing grit for the 3 or 4th time, so could someone give me a hand?

Please describe the mission. Is it taking place in the fog of war, or is it the one where you have to secure your HQ before Grit captures it?
Oh, and there are 3 secret Sonja missions. I hope you can beat Kanbei fast enough to open the secret missions.

There is fog of war, not factories, lots of water. Wipe out or capture. 1 Md tank, 4 subs, and i don't remember what else.

That's not enough info. I'm afraid you'll have to tell me more, especially since I don't remember any battles with subs involving Grit.

You'll have to move your transport copter along the south part of the map to capture Grit’s base.
There are two rocket launchers on the map. One is in the last forest south of your transport copter, and the other of which is on the city inside the curved mountain range. Grit also has anti-air units coming down the road and missile launchers in the north and northeast sections of the map.
Grit is a tough CO isn't he?

If you like that, you should check out Black Hole Rising as well. And Dual Strike along with Days of Ruin for the DS are great. Particularly Days of Ruin--You won't find the same bright, colorful art style, but in exchange you'll find a MUCH more balanced package.

I thought you must have gotten the mission wrong.
Ok, load up the MD Tanks on the southern lander and the Mechs on the other lander. The MD Tanks should land on the southern side of the far east island. From there, you'll need to check the forests to the east side. There will be a Rocket there. A little to the north will be an Artillery. Two Tanks are on the island, but will be no threat.
Send all three Subs to the northeast. Grit will have a Battleship there which must be destroyed. Along the way, there's a Lander. You'll notice Grit's submerged Sub diving. Have one of your Sub pull along side it and then the Cruiser can wipe out the dived Sub.
Your Battleship, Recon, and normal Infantry should prevent Grit's forces from taking your HQ.
The Lander with the two Mechs should land by Grit's HQ once you eliminate the Rocket and Artillery guarding Grit's HQ island. The Battleship must also be destroyed. From there, you can capture his HQ.
========
You've made a pretty good choice of getting the original AW. It's COs are some of the most balanced. Grit can actually be beaten in this version.

I don't remember. I think its when you face Eagle a second time. In any case, she's a bit hard to use in Campaign due to not having factories.
Outside of Campaign, she'll destroy everything with her Mech storm tactics.

Yes, all COs are available exactly as they appear, except for the secret boss's stats, which changes when you use him.
