How to deal with a wall of vehicles?? I solve that with one vehicle. The manticore it hits side armor and can hit multiple targets if he brings all the vehicles together. Hide it behind a building and if you worried about it being killed take two of them. If your wanting to stay with all ground forces then take vet squads with heavy weapons and infantry squads with heavy weapons that way you don't have to worry about the ID.

Another strategy is take the aegis and go to ground everytime he shoots you and use orders to get back up each turn.

But I1m more concerned about the MoO's "friendly fire effectiveness". There are only a few things that are worse than a loose MoO shot landing right in the middle of your objective-holding troops .

Which I find odd for somebody in favor of a Manticore.
2D6" scatter, with a 5" template flop for the 2nd and 3rd blast isn't all that much less friendly than a 3D6 inch scatter.
You simply don't want to use barrages for close fire-support, unless those shots are coming from a griffon.

Run a psyker with divination and TL the manticore with the prescience power. Improves its effectiveness substantially.
