SF2NA unresponsive Controls (with Joystick) - FIX
SOLUTION:
This mod is based on SF2NA ExpPack
 
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
 
When SF2NA came out TK messed up the controls.ini file so it doesn't match what the in-game controls show.
He released a fix but it not works for all Joysticks.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
So on this page (Link below) you have explanation what to do - by user "iahn755" he explained all well:
 
 
You need manually to edit - to place a name of your controller in "Controls".ini
this usually fix the problem

The Beriev Be-6 "Madge" was a flying boat produced by the Soviet Beriev OKB. It was capable of accomplishing a wide variety of missions, such as long-range maritime reconnaissance, coastal and supply line patrols, torpedo/bombing strikes, mine-laying, and transport operations.  The Be-6 was built from 1949 to 1957 at the Beriev plant in Taganrog .

NOTICE:
model still have no moving propellers  and the clearance from the ground is higher than should be, because original Model is built as static one and is half-inserted into the ground.
also rear gunner is not placed in position (it will be done with next update)

ODZADZE

I Edited all ini. files (DATA / USERLIST / LOADOUT / AVIONICS / COCKPIT), Hangar & Loading images...
also i do slight changes in Cockpit (Cabina).

- Cockpit: Kesselbrut
 
I also need to thank to
Thirdwire & Combatace
 

What is New...
There are x3 Playable tanks.
M-84AS, T-80BV, T-90 MBT

Tanks are originally made as Ground models (static), but now are PLAYABLE models.
 

Tanks are equipped with x8
Shell 125MM 9K119M Refleks-M (HEAT)  laser beam riding, guided anti-tank missiles.
&
Standard 125mm D-81K Tank Gun

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
All of this is done, because some Combatace users ask me to make Playable tanks.
And i wanted to test the boundaries of Game engine.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

What is important to mention?
 
- Strike fighters 2 maps are not made for typical ground Campaign
because of that Tanks sometimes want to be "bumpy" when pass over terrain tile boundary layer.

-Do not try to pass over watter (tank will get stuck)

-Distance from starting position "Airstrip" to the (Primary Target) can't be skipped with (ALT+N)
Because of Low Altitude
so Player must pass everything on Foot (Tracked Wheels) !
 

Just do Time Compression x8 (ALT + T) and Speed up !
 
 
And of course Turret is in Fixed position, so you need to aim like you use Tank destroyer (etc. Hetzer tank or Sturmgeschutz)
