------------------------------------
-reduced soldier infantry fall damage slightly
-fixed vehicle to vehicle collisions (ie light vehicles can no longer ram heavy vehicles
and not lose damage. Heavy vehicles will also take less damage from collisions )
-improved pitch rate for SA-342
-updated stinger texture for FULL build
-fixed engines disappearing prematurely on A-10
-fixed SCUD-B driving sounds
-fixed missing canopy on Mirage
-removed horn feature from UralTanker to fix CTD
-reduced splash radius and damage from destroyed zpu-4
-fixed opaque windows for UralTanker exterior mesh
-fixed static wrecked meshes that were lacking custom collision meshes
-fixed missing glass on BRDM2 Spandrel
-added crosshair to Tabuk sniper rifle for unzoomed view
-fixed sound issues for MG42
-updated M16A2 animations
