Certainly, you know they would survive, being necessary to the plot, but grunts sure as heck put an effort to make that endeavor difficult.
Later you have AU aces like Setsuna, Kira, and Kio, who can go out there and pretty much handle an entire battalion by themselves as if they were all playing a variation of Gundam Musou! 
And that is despite the fact that mobile suits piloted by their foes aren't exactly on the bottom of the tech tree. |
Well, all I will say at this point is: It takes a lot of hard work (among other things) to make it look easy.
