Hi there, found the issue and correction for it, hopefully will save others from having to run repairs.
If you have ever installed the IDF Mods F-16I, you will need to delete every one of their files from your Install folder. Even though the mod is "uninstalled", it leaves some files in the Coremods folder (most in the shapes subfolder) in your install directory that is causing some conflicts to occur.
