You're getting a lot of bad advice here.
Your first instinct was correct: your version is already patched. Do NOT install patch 1.4b.
A quick explanation, as I was part of the 1.4 patch test team: After 1.3 they decided it needed a fourth patch. We tested 1.4, they changed it a little and dubbed it 1.4b. Unfortunately if you load it it only says 1.3 on the changefiles. But it says 1.4 on the loading screen when you boot the game up.
Newer versions come already patched, and yes it is the very latest greatest 1.4b patch, as 1.4 was never released to the public. So you're good to go.
SH3 Commander is an external tool which works around the game to give you some of the greatest options you can imagine. It is compatible with any mod or supermod, so it is highly recommended. GWX3 will greatly add to your game experience; SH3 Commander will greatly add to your career experience.
Good luck and good hunting.
